one of the worst mistakes for me, has always been the lightsabers casting shadows and not really iluminating it's surroundings. Even in ROTS, the mistakes still ocurr. Do you think it would be too time consuming to actually remove every shadow?

I have quickly retouched a screenshot you posted early in this thread.

Iluminating the enviorement is the easiest thing, just some masking and quick painting and your done. Removing the shadow is easy but time consuming. It might also depent on each scene. Im sure I could have used some prior frames where there is no lightsaber shadow and blend that part into this frame. anyway, keep up the great work man! its looking fantastic!
