| (...) One way is to insert a (dim) lightsource exactly at the camera point - this way everything you can see is also lighted. By making this light dimmer than other lights, you can still have shadows, but not so articulated. -- Anders Isaksson, (...) (21 years ago, 4-Feb-04, to lugnet.cad.ray)

The problem is that any shadows make the minifig look like it's just a (...) (21 years ago, 5-Feb-04, to lugnet.cad.ray, FTX)
