I think it's a great idea, but unfortunately the image is way too dark for me to 
be able to comment on the modeling.

Prof. Plum in the study with the candlestick?

Too dark.  Fix the contrast.  Too portray eerieness or nightime, use utlra
HIGH contrast and blue light.

Warp had a really good way of articulating the way to portray nighttime.

Suggestion:  change your current light source to:  rgb <0.2,0.2,2.0>  and
repost it here.

Matt:

Clue!  The concept is great.  But, I agree with the others.  Some
work on illumination is in order.

Great concept!

Others have commented on the lighting. I'd like to see a the lights that
cast the shadows of the playing pieces be quite yellowish, like the oil
lamps of yesteryear. I agree that the light casting the shadow of the
stick-up should be bluish.

Currently I find the background too distracting: is that a settee with
cushions? If so, then what is the photograph doing there? And what's with
the guy who looks like a 1950's politician? Maybe all this distraction will
resolve with better lighting...

You've taken on quite a task-- even in bright moonlight, most colors that
are percieved at night are really our imaginations filling in when there are
too few photons to work the cone cells. Possibly more contrast and less
saturation would be worth trying.
