I like the concept and I think the background works great.
Trying to get so much background, to me, resulted in an image that took a little away from your primary objective: a great shot of the knight. I agree with Eman about the prop.
A little drop shadow would make the overall effect look a little more natural, too. (good call, Duv)
Overall, this is a winning concept.

That was an excellent job, how much of his outfit did you paint?
I disagree about the dropshadow though. Studio photographers go to a lot of trouble to avoid getting shadows on their backdrops, so retouchers shouldn't be going in and adding them. I don't think it makes it look any more natural. If anything, you could blur a background if it is too busy.

Original
In Progress Edit
It's really distracting. I want to keep the setting true to the original, well rather as realistic as possible. Like I don't want to place the subjects in an entirely different...-
