I've been looking at some PSDs fro help on lighting. CnC

Lighting is pretty good, perhaps needs to be more defined.

Perhaps colour it more. Most of the light there is hardly cyan in the slightest and could do with slighter duller, but coloured light, if you get my drift.

Render needs to be blended into the background, as does the C4Ds into the render, but it's good if you were just concentrating on the lighting for now.

I here what you're saying. Lighting was my main objective here. I'll try and work on putting everything together.

The trick with this type of lgihting is getting the rest of the tag to be darker, my advice would be to add an overlayed layer of black, and erasing only the parts in which the lighting is sourced or in which the lighting hits. Now obviously this is very standard, there is a lot more that goes into the process but it is a strategy that i i found out on my own and developed over time, needless to say i still haven't mastered it. Proper lighting takes a lot of practice, especially the type you are going for (many sources).

Or, if you're using Photoshop,

The Lighting Effects filter is retardedly amazing.

Takes some time to get used to, but it has options to change the quality of the light.
