Shady Patch

Shady Patch brings a tree, grass and forest environment into your scene as both backdrop and IBL source. Captured at full dynamic range, the panorama avoids the chromatic clipping that breaks shaders.

Technical specs: full dynamic range, equirectangular projection, EXR, HDR and JPG formats. The asset preserves highlight detail without the clipping that ruins specular reflections.

Suited for VFX departments who want their renders to feel grounded. Shady Patch carries the colour temperature, intensity gradient, and reflection cues of a real-world environment.
