Looking good. :-) May I humbly suggest, though, that you make the cauldron and the brassiere fires your primary light sources. It seems to me that your darkest shadows should be cast by these two fires, or they should at least be equal to the shadows cast by the candles. Your darkest shadows look like they are cast only by a light source on the table, such as the candle. [That's got to be one powerful candle. ;-) ] Or you could make it look like there is another light source(s) beyond the confines of the image. This image could gain a lot of atmosphere, so to speak, if areas of it darkened (increased in contrast) and shadows deepened the further they were from the fires and candle flames. Oh... and keeping or adding faint light coming through that window beyond the doorway is/would be a nice effect. You have a neat scene here, which gives you the opportunity to do some interesting lighting. Cheers!
