The texture on the brick is a bit too varigated in color. Combined with the indented face, it looks more like a brick shaped sponge than a heavy object.
Other than that, the image is quite nice. Good background, perspective, and lighting.

Thanks for the comment Mossy. Problem is, your criticism of the brick texture is odd since its actually a real picture of a brick that was applied. So, that's just what the brick would look like in real life.
I think your texture scaling combined with the odd shape may be why it looks so fake... I have an entire fireplace wall done with that type of brick, so I am familiar with the texture.
It's called "rake brick" because of the texture pattern.
Here are a couple of photoa of how the real thing looks:

Hrm Mossy. You might be right. It didnt look like that when I saw the texture flat so I made it up as I went along. I am just going to leave it as it is now tho. Thanks for your input.

Isometric Camera, is that why I failed everytime I tried to do one of these?

yeah, I tried to use perspective camera. but, when i put the cube, it messed up the other cubes, so I tried isometric, and that was great, because it made orthographic views and it's about 45 degrees view.
