So after competition I took the given critique and have started modifications to making the picture better than before by exaggerating the mouse pose, making the cheese more recognizable, and putting Ma closer to not have her distract from the Mouse.

Sadly there has been a problem that has come up preventing me from working as efficiently. Maya has decided I can only make one render per opening where she otherwise crashes if one tries to make a second. This has caused me to change my workflow to opening my project in Maya, render the previous save, and save any modifications from that before starting the process over and over and over again. Not sure on how to fix this problem, but I will look into it when back at the rendering station.
