How to make a Gradient Sky Dome using Billboards! | Planet Zoo Tutorial
Someone asked me how I would make the "Sea World Orlando Wild Arctic" ceiling, which portays a sky. I figured billboards would be the way to go, and after doing some experimenting really liked how it turned out, so I turned it into a tutorial! Enjoy!
Get all the billbboards I made for this tutorial here:

If you want to have different colors/need more/less billboards, you'll have to make your own using an image editing program, I recommend paint(dot)net: https://www.getpaint.net/
