The flash units can be auxiliary flash units, connected to the camera by extension cords, or they can be slave flash units.
A wireless master/slave flash outfit would really simplify the setup for this kind of work. For most of the bellows setups I positioned the flash units fairly close to the subject and used TTL flash metering.
If you don't have a hot shoe, a slave flash would be an alternative. These fire the flash when they sense another flash nearby going off.
I became a slave to autofocus. A family on vacation asked me to take some pictures of them in front of an old monument with their manual focus camera. Mom, dad, and the kids posed nicely and smiled while I shot a few frames.
You can get a decent set of two monolights, light stands, umbrellas, sync cord (to connect one light to your camera to trigger the flash, while the other is triggered by a built-in 'slave' or light sensor that will fire the flash when it senses the ...
The master will control one or more slave flash units. The slave units can be SB-600/800, or the new R-200 macro. The number of slave units is essentially unlimited.

Don’t think only large strobes but small system strobes with an array of small slave strobes. My favorites are made by Morris.
Important note: When using two speedlights and the second one is on a SU-4 flash control unit, or is a flash with is own built-in slave capability, you have to make certain pre-flashes do not pre-trigger the second flash.

If you have a diagram with measurements of how far away from background all the lights should for a two softbox and one slave light - that would be so helpful. My room size is 14'9 x 14'9. I have dark burgundy walls and can't paint them.

It is also quite easy to use more than one flash through the use of slave units.Try taking your photos at different times during the day and in different lighting conditions.
