This looks pretty good too, Marque. I had trouble with lights at first too, but you get used to it. The "sun" in Vue doesn't really act like a sun would. For example, if you have the sun in Vue behind your subject and low, you will see mostly silhouette. In reality of course, just because it's 8:00 p.m. and nearing sunset, doesn't mean you still can't see things, but In Vue it does... One way to fix it is to up the ambient light settigns, but too much of that destroys some shadows and makes for unrealistic lighting. As for me, I add lots of quadratic point lights here and there, making most of them shadowless, and with no lens flare, of different colors, and varying brightness. Just keep with it and experiment...you'll see. :)
