to the anon who asked about my portrait lighting, sorry this took so long! but here's my quick tutorial on portrait lighting, including links to the cc i use. ;)

in a room 8 x 14 (with no windows or doors), i set up my lighting and teleporter first as you see spaced here. lights 1 & 2 are each 1 square away diagonally from the teleporter and turned a quarter inward using the < or > keys. light 3 is 4 squares directly in front of the teleporter. i usually alternate one light red and another blue for contrast, but the front light is always neutral. you can do any other color combination for the side lights, but i recommend doing contrasting colors like red and blue or purple and cyan. doing orange and pink, for example, will probably just blend together.

then i pop in the backdrop i'll be using (or paint the walls and lay down flooring), and resize my lights so they're not in the way.

if you'd like to use the exact items i use, here they are:

base game "outdoor ground light"

tuds ema 30° ceiling lamp

kewai-duo umbrella light short
