I don't really agree that the lighting must be from the top left. I think it should be from the general direction of the tag.

Lighting comes from whenever it supposed to be. You are trying to make a scene here so the lighting should be in accordance to the bright and dark spots of everything in the piece. Flow doesn't also necessarily mean top left to bottom right. It should be however the elements "move" for the flow. If you keep using the same movement in your tags, all of them will look boring and repetitive. Anyway, I can help you with this. Hit me up with a PM here or in GI. One more thing, add more forums. It's not limited to just GI you know. Grin
