This is quite an interesting combination of elements! I really like how you combined the miniature houses with real life objects and people. That's a really creative idea. I also love how you created a background behind the houses. It really makes this look like a real neighbourhood!

I like that you added a shadow to the carriage, but I think it would look more believable if you made it flatter. If you look at the original stock of the carriage, you'll see what I mean about the flat shadows. If you use photoshop, you could achieve a similar affect by using the perspective and skew tools.

Using four models helps to create that scene of a real community, which was also a good idea. I like where you placed the gentleman because it looks like he's greeting the lady, who appears to be ignoring the poor fellow. I think to create that community scene it would have been more interesting to see some of the characters truly interacting, but I know how difficult it can be to find suitable models for your specific idea.

Another part that I really like is the flower boxes. The original houses had flowers, but they were also porcelain. The real flowers add some charm to it. If you're really going for detail, you could also add a shadow of the shrub to the building, similar to that of the lamp post, again using the transform tools in photoshop. Still, this is a beautifully put together piece with many nice little details. I enjoyed viewing it. Thanks for sharing!
