Lighting Legos

I have had a tough time getting good shots of my Lego creations. My cousin helped me get the hang of setting the custom white balance on my wife's Canon Rebel DSLR. They could have made it a bit simpler IMO.

 I also had to get some new lights. I wanted to spend as little as I could (that's my Lego $) so i picked up these two lights at Ikea for 3.99. plus 7$ for the bulbs. They are very adjustable seem to be good for this purpose so far. I am just using tissue to diffuse my lights.

The grey paper I picked up at Michael's. It comes out a bit splotchy in the photos so I might replace it at some point. At least for now I can take a decent pic.
