Quite often people will post their code in the scene-files groups, I know
that some scenes including the clouds have been posted there fairly 
recently.

Your textures will improve with time, they'll get more complex, and before
long the textures will take you much longer than the modelling as you start
to demand more of yourself in that direction.  Just keep tweeking until you
come up with something that you like.

Or maybe some big chips and cracks in the columns, (I'm not looking at the
image at the moment so just thinking of possible ways to go), make the 
concrete/brick part of the floor uneven etc.   Plants look very good if you
get the right, and not many people do. 

Good luck.
