I did the whole thing within a day, Im still working on it, adding details and other parts of the scene. The lighting is cool but looks depressing. I need to devise a way to make it look like its a happy day outside. Any help in this is appreciated. I just am not that experienced in lighting that isnt dreary and scary and evil looking, which is normally ok for my scenes... thanks for the comment. Later

A happy day outside huh, you could start with a blue-ish background iso a black-one, or a more red/yellowish one 2 make it look like a happy late summer afternoon. Add some yellow/red lights 2 the scene and C how it comes up?...


Good luck,

T
