    I think OP's project would be great to add as a new entry to the SQIP demo site [2].

    In the thumbnail demo, the LQIP-custom approach (simple resize to low-res jpg thumbail+optimize jpg) approach preserves the more salient features better and has compression on-par-or-better than SQIP with lower processing times. So in my opinion the simple extreme resize+jpgoptim is preferable for thumbnails.

    Thumbnails are only small part of LQIP story though and I can imagine RH12503/Triangula working much better for larger images.
