I appreciate that geto but the room is not that big. It's L shaped, long and narrow. I was going to buy a 14-24 mm lens anyways so that should make it easy enough to take pics of the setup. Trust me, it's not much, just some backgrounds and a few lights but it works great for statue photos.

I do have umbrellas that are set up with fluorescent bulbs. These I use if I am going for a cooler color and want to really bring out the colors. Most of the photos previous to the IM with the black background are shot with these lights.

I also have a couple of 1000W halogens that are enclosed in a softbox. These produce a warmer tone as the lights have a tinge of yellow to them, especially when dialled down. These are new and I've only used them for the IM and the bronze Fett pictures. The lights have a variable output which is perfect for varying amounts of shade on the statues. I still need to practice with this setup.
