Skylight / Domelight In Blender By Neil Blevins Created On: Mar 31st 2025 Software: Blender A Skylight or Domelight
is a type of light in cg that emits light from a sphere or dome that
surrounds your scene, and uses ambient occlusion to provide realistic
soft shadows. It is frequently combined with an HDRi of a sky to create
realistic skylighting, and can provide both diffuse and specular
illumination. Unlike other 3d apps, Blender doesn't have an obvious
Skylight light type, so this tutorial shows you how to make one.
