Hello LegoJosephStudios! Welcome to the community! For best results when lighting your set, use two to four lamps so your entire set is lighted. I personally use two. For constructing night shots, make sure there is no natural light whatsoever. Even a small amount will result in light flicker. Dim your lamps to the lowest setting, and if you find that the lamps are still too bright, angle them but still make sure the whole set is lit.
