You mention in one of the photo comms that you wish your sheets were not so wrinkly.
Here's a tip. Instead of ironing the sheets to make them flat (unless that is exactly what you want), bunch up you backdrop sheets so they are evenly wrinkled. Then it looks like texture, rather then fold lines.
Check if your camera has slow shutter flash.
This changes the timing of the flash so it happens at the end of a longer shutter opening. You get some motion blur while the shutter is open, but anything that was in motion gets frozen and properly exposed at the end of the exposure.
Those sheets are actually my wall. I live in a living room of a shitty apartment partitioned by curtains and tapestries. These sheets were new and wrinkled from the package =) When I do shoot this idea in the studio though, I will keep your suggestion in mind.
I really like the tip about the slow shutter flash. I think this is what I wanted to do originally but didn't know how. So, thank you very much =)

but you need to have a faster shutter speed so the detail of your arm isnt totally lost
