Thanks! What I used was a DIY soft box and a LED camping flashlight. I'll show you guys my little experience since I'm actually proud of this LOL.
I went to Broadway Cameras and they didn't have any soft boxes of my size. I was looking for something roughly 24"x24" but they only had one that was 24"x36" I think and it was $199. I then walked to Daiso and decided to make my own soft box.
Following items:
1) Translucent folder $2
2) Tracing paper $2
3) Box of oranges without the oranges lol found it in the storage room.
4) Some ductape
5) Masking tape
6) Tin foil
7) Camping flashlight $15 at Can.Tire
I started by trimming the corners so I can make a pyramid sorta shape

Here's the $15 light

Taped it secure

Tin foiled

I ripped the pages off the folder and kept the plastic cover. Then placed the tracing paper on the plastic sheet. You can control the opacity via number of pieces of tracing paper. I used only one sheet.

It works!

It's just very fragile though, I had to seatbelt the box. My beloved box which costed me $4.48 tax included + some things around the house!
