In reference to this post and the previous one, I think continuous light may be one reason your portraits are so effective. Flash (even with modeling lights) really doesn't allow you to play with light. I know lots of great portraits were taken by people who had so internalized the effects of flash that they could probably visualize final effects, but I prefer actuality to visualization.
