Lookin' good dolly. I would go with a very dark lighting scheme with alot of shadows, but with light coming from everywhere. Lots of fog too. The type of lighting I would dp with this probably would kill Vue, but I don't ever really try, since I've gotten used to doing alot of that stuff in Painter. I'm always more stricken by pictures with real strong light contrasts, particularly when the larger portion of it is very dark with alot of shadows. Bright light would look good too, but whatever you do, take advantage fully of the objects' placement for throwing around interesting shadows. You could go either way with this depending on your lighting, and whether it's mostly dark or mostly light, the shadows will have alot to do with whether it looks "nice" or menacing. ;)
