Looks good. Just a suggestion but maybe you could add some transparency to the screen part of it, and try a render with some light filtering through and the silhouette of the model. I've never tried anything like that in Poser so I'm not sure if the rendering engine is up to it. I once tried a render with the louvred lighting effect to cast shadowed lines on the model. I made a transmap with solid white bars and black ones, then applied it to a square prop and placed it between the light and the figure ... but I couldnt set the amount of light that went through. It either went through 100% or none at all -- and it had some wierd distortions and anomalies. I ended up redoing the scene and making each of the louvre slats separately out of primitives. My point is that so far I think the Poser rendering engine is pretty limited -- every time I think I'm starting to understand the ins and outs of it it goes and does something completely unpredictable. Ah well. I'm getting propack soon and then I'll do all of my rendering in Max.
