A little contrived for my liking. I would have preferred a more 3D arrangement with some depth to it.

Well photographed, and with good colours. I can see a bit of a white box underneath the ribbon guy against the border though, but then again, my monitor is set to really bright, so not everyone will see that.

Reminds me of the M&M guys, especially with the bored expression you've given him. Nice setup and well lit. Just feels a touch cut off at the top for me. 7.
