Yeah I'm going to redesign the corporate emblem to allow for that line. At 
present it's written upside down on the other side, and the company is 
currently entitled "Corporation Inc.". So I'm gonna change all that. I might 
have to adjust the panel gaps to fit between the words, or name my company 
so the space is in the right place!

The shadows aren't red, they're grey, in fact everything apart from the blue 
bits is completely grey scale, then I use a post-processing filter to tint 
the whole image orange! i.e. it's a monochrome image in red-orange with a 
couple of blue highlights! That's what you get when you bash stuff together, 
it's not even vaguely realistic lighting!

The high-contrast look definitely looks good on this kind of scene.
