Ooh, yeah, that's fit for an elvish lady. :D
Teyon, regarding the glowing TV screen, as RedPhantom demonstrated, IDL does not respond in proper proportion to an active light source; it was only designed for passive diffuse bounces (cf Mantis 33917). So, use an unseen emitter to cast the light.
I omitted the glass from the windows of the carriage, and that sped up rendering considerably. Also smoothed out the shape, and improved UV mapping. In the scene, the materials have been adjusted for IDL. The old style A3 skins really don't work for twilight scenes, but take the square root (color math node) of the texture map and add SSS, and they lighten up.
