I also use in dark areas a stand mounted pair of portable halogen lights.

The 24X24 attached garage is not near as bad as the above, it only has 7 fluorescent fixtures. But it is just used to park every day cars.
After that, there are still dark areas?

The 24x24 attached is closer to my space. Nice setup. I'm thinking two bay lights, each with 4 5900K daylight fluorescent tubes. I've got a power garage door unit, rail etc which might throw a shadow if the bays are ceiling mounted so I like the idea of the vert work lights, too. A couple of portables might cancel out those shadows - sort of like three point video lighting, I would think. What about heat? I know FL is cooler, but that's a lot of light. Are you under air?
