I put my computer to test again and had it grind a few more sky panoramic textures out for the community. By far the most downloaded free resource on the Cg Cookie network with over 4200 downloads, we felt it deserved a sequel.
This next set of sky images are focused on dusk, and cloudy scenarios and were rendered out on my trusty IMAC with bootcamp. roughly 5-8hrs per render. Darn 3D clouds…
Or you may view the first installment here.
These images were created with Dreamscape from Afterworks, a 3D Studio Max Plugin. But don’t fret, these are .tgas and work great with any software package.
Enjoy!

- six 4096×2048 .tga sky textures

Hi Wes
Can you not make the textures in HDR (48bit PNG f.ex.) ?
I appreciate your effort but if you are spending hours on your sky panorama renderings shold they not be in highest quality ?
Thanks
