Is Mouse World suitable for 3D projects?

The best 3D effect appears when one element becomes the main character and the other details support the composition.

How to build a composition with Mouse World?

The easiest way is to treat Mouse World like a small scene. First choose the character or main motif, then add the background, details and supporting elements.

choose the main motif
add a background that does not compete with the character
place details around the centre of the composition
do not use all elements at once
leave visual breathing space
layer only the elements that strengthen the story

Mouse World looks best when the composition has a clear focal point.
