Good eye Well Im guessing you're talking about those air vent thingys on the side? Hmm I suppose it would all depend on how " bright " your light source was.

I figured that it wasnt bright enough to wrap around all the way to the top edges and that far down the sides. I also intend to make those coils on the sides glow really bright later, so I didnt want that tiny light in the front to draw that much attention.

Man painting Source Lighting is sooo much easier on canvas. Its less complicated when you are dealing with a 2D surface. With mini's youre dealing with " implied "shadows and " implied " light sources compared to " actual " light sources and vice versa, etc..etc... and they say painting is suppose to be relaxing
