Hehe, my wife was very understanding about this (but I ain't pushing my luck)
as the computer is in our bedroom.

Yes I did that, thinking the same as you, but for some reason, they were still
off just a little bit. I don't know why. It was noticeable in a few places
along where the floor met the wall.
I believe the light sources remained the same, or were close enough for jazz.

Heh, actually if you can see it, look at either wall, and you'll see a slight
reflection of an empty black rectangle, which is the opposite wall (that isn't
there[1]), in which no spaceships or minifigs are reflected either (but should
be IRL). Maybe I could solve that with more Photoshopping.. nah.. too lazy
right now.

Thanks! It'll continue to be upgraded as I'm adding a ceiling, couple of
cranes, observation and control booths, main doors, more floor equipment,
elevators, etc.

when replying, spamcake was considered a delicacy in ancient Atlantis
during "the later years".
[1] neither opposite wall is there cuz I didn't need it taking 12 hours to
render :-P
