At first I was like ok with the opener and the manip.
The follow up was clever, a nice touch of realism in there, even though I'm sure you know the little details you could have tweaked to make it more realistic if you wanted to.
Personally I also enjoyed that you just went for a clean decap after the trick, looked neat.
AND THEN THAT POSE MY GOD THAT WAS THE BEST FUCKING POSE I HAVE EVER SEEN, TOO FUCKING BOSS
Therefore I liked it very very much.
