DISCLAIMER: The Aircraft model seen in the images and Demo Video is NOT included in the Product. You can find it for free on Sketchfab though.


Aerial Skies is a collection of high-resolution aerial HDRIs, designed to bring realistic, atmospheric sky environments to your 3D scenes. All captured from a bird’s-eye perspective, above the clouds.

Created in Blender Cycles, these HDRIs combine photorealistic lighting with real-time performance, making them ideal for both stills and animations.

What’s Included:

• 10 HDRIs to start, with more to be added over time based on user feedback

• Resolutions up to 16k (16384 x 8192p).

• A range of times of day: sunrise, sunset, noon, morning, etc.

• Realistic atmospheric lighting, volumetric clouds, and satellite-based ground detail

• Blender world nodes group, for realistic paralax effect.

• Bonus: Blender Jet engine Effect seen in the Demo videos and screenshots
  Blender Geomatry Nodes Setup for easy Aircraft Animation.

Animate Your HDRIs

With a simple but clever node setup (included), you can fake parallax movement, allowing you to create smooth aerial flyovers with moving backgrounds, all in real time. As seen in the demo Video

Easy to Use

Whether you're a professional or a hobbyist, Aerial Skies is designed to give you great results out of the box, while staying flexible for more advanced setups. The HDRIs work on their own or can be used as a base for additional volumetric effects.

Compatible with other Programs

The HDRIs come in both .exr and .hdr file format. They work in any program, that supports these file formats.
DISCLAIMER: The Parallax node group only works in Blender, but the effect is simple and can probably be also achieved in other programs.
