Re: How to create a dome sky
create a sphere and scale it so its bigger than you scene, then apply a lambert to it map a sky texture to the colour slot, then uv map the sphere eith cylindrical or shperical projection will do.. if you are using mental ray also map the sky texture to the incandesence or ambienceOriginally posted by starjsjswars

Make a Sphere > Add a lambert > Map the incandescence as a ramp > then in the ramp just get the colors you like. then just go under the HSV color noise and move some up alittle.
