Geometry of characters and environment

Back
Environment lighting
Stained Glass windows
Main door to castle
Torches flickering
Shadows on the characters and the environment
Reflections from the windows and the torches, especially the sword prop and the throne
I may also play with smoke coming out of the Angel of Death
Potentially make the castle had a slight foggy haze to it to emphasize the light streaming in through the stained glass
