Idea generation image 2

Idea for my second piece was based on characteristics between my background and essential figure & 2 stock images .

I wanted to achieve similar silhouette as in movie The Last Samurai. Where group of nijna attacked village during a night (ninja on the top of the roof with moon in bg)

Ideas for stock A,B images were:

I have considered a combination of parts from this image. Where lid itself could be used as shield on his back.
