Sky In Aerial View

Seek the options of others. The client insist that the sky should show I say it cannot at this height as the sky is behind you, am I wrong?

If you put a ground plane in you can see where nXt thinks the horizon should be. Whether or not the horizon is visible depends on your viewing angles-- including things like view directions and field of view.

Will give it a try. Thanks.

This is actually a pretty nice rendering-- consider submitting it to the gallery.

Will!

i think that just dropping in a sky behind it would be wrong. if there are building in the area of your project, you'd probably see those rooftops too. just playing with one of my background images, I had to really scale it down and mirror it just to get it close to ok. Its still off. Maybe you can use a spherical image and adjust it so you can use a very wide section of it.

Thanks very much I believe the client will go for this. Can you post the background image you used?

[Kevin Lockwood]

I'm away for the weekend. I can send it Monday. All I did was to find a background that had as much ground before the horizon as I could. This was a wide image and I still had to mirror it to get it to fit. Looks awful in my opinion.
