Hey guys, I am trying to light a low poly scene in 3d studio max. It is a christmas themed scene, and trying to simulate christmas lights. But don't know how to go about it. I could never light my scenes properly. Is there any good tutorials?

The scene is a small modular street. each module is a house, and a bit of property.
I am using a 2D plane with coloured christmas lights texture on it w/alpha map.
I am trying to light up the house but am failing miserably.

I tried just placing a couple omni lights infront of each house, and changed the colours.. But this gave more of a terrible rainbow look :(

I have spent hours looking for a tutorial or something for a christmas themed lighting, but can't find anything.

Any one have suggestions, tips, or tutorials?

Thanks!
