So I was tooling around on the web and found this pic:

There is a set up shot if you go to the web site.

I didn't do the side lights...cause I have done that before....also I was way, way to close to my background...so I need to rethink that.

My set up:

My ugly mug:

Elinchrom 600 RX with speedotron BD below ugly mug. Alien Bee's ringflash on 5D with 85L.

I am thinking they had their BD gridded....mine wasn't. I am thinking that would have helped a lot....

As have I. I have a few projects I think might benefit from using one... How do you like it? Do you have a Moon Unit as well?

Back OT, it looks like you're getting close. As you stated, you might want to move forward some to provide a little more shadow on the background.
