Ok, so with the main light, I can do several shots (bracketed 1 stop) and move
the main light in a semi circle about the subject, getting various effects
with the light. Should the main light have a snoot and focused on the smoke?
This would have the fill (2-3 stops less light) to illuminate the model.

ahh, good thought, I have a AF-360 FGZ flash, it has a built in diffuser.
I also have an off camera cable for it, so I could simply point it at one
of the monolights, facing away from the subject. With this method I could also 
do a rear curtain sync.

Kind regards
