Okay seriously, this is some great work! What kind of light did you use?

Okay:

Stage right - Natural light
Stage left - large reflector
Centre, lower - fill light, in this case a distant flashlight. You can do that with miniatures. No filter on the light. Sometimes, and this'll make you barf, to diffuse the lighting on my light I use either thin materials like tissue paper OR I rig a condom on the light. And IT WORKS!

Ah but the tissues or condoms work indeed! The light is beautifully diffused :)I think I'm going to fav it anyway... and I have to try diffused light too with such a nice glow around the subject :) Always wanted to do that

Here is another trick that I used on this picture to diffuse:

Copy the main (Background) Layer
Go to Levels and lighten the Copy Layer
On the Copy Layer go to Filters > Blur > Gaussian Blur at 4-20%
Reduce the Layer Opacity to 40-50%
Flatten image
VOILA!

It is quite manipulated, but I am working on it every day and in every way. Thank you so much for the comment. It does seem eerier as it goes on.
