My lighthouse render!
I had trouble getting the lighting setup right, but I finally settled on this one.
Hi, and a warm welcome.
And yes, lighting is hard stuff to understand.
It looks simple but has a lot of nuances.
One of them is the difference between Eevee, and Cycles render.
Just continue and you will understand this.
Have fun.

Thanks, I will do that. 
I saw some others getting way creative with their render projects deviating quite a bit from the tutorial project. I feel I’m missing out by not experimenting, but it’s better to follow the tutorial scope as a beginner than learn bad practices.
I’m going to redo all the projects after finishing the course.

Some of the students, have more knowledge and improve the challenge.
But with the knowledge you have now, you can add more details if you wish.
Add more rocks, a ship, trees, etc…
It’s good to start experimenting but try to stay at the level you’ve learned and maybe a bit more. Because most students have a big project on their minds. But there is so much more to learn in Blender. Which make bigger project more doable.
So experiment, if stuck do ask.
