Quote - Well I don't really want super shiny, this is what I've managed with 'Don' so far:

You can see that the lighting is abysmal - I have no idea how to get lights inside the lanterns and how to get them to react correctly, but apart from that...

those are beautiful!

In P5 I'd use ambient in the screens of the tantern and use a wide spot light located just outside of every screen giving them a color similar to the screen one, people with P6 P7 may use a point light inside the lamp (lamp not casting shadow) and P8 P9 may use just the ambient of the screens and let IDL do its magic, everybody can find a solution.
