Default Enviroment?

Hi there,

I have created a ww2 scene, with animated planes tanks etc etc, but still not sure which kind of enviroment to have. I was thinking of a night-time environment, but as my scene is quite large in scale, and planes and tanks moving about from one side to the other, i'm not too sure about the lights i should use, and where to place them. If anyone could give me any help on this, that would be much apprecited. If you have any suggestions on what kind of enviroment i should have, please say.

thanks

edd

Given its a night shot you would probably want one far off light ( the moon ), and then perhaps a couple of street lights ( depending on the scene environment ) to brighten it up in certain areas.
