honestly too busy for another project at the moment, maybe next week. Ah so you like the physical sky method! Surprising you can still get great detail in the shadows. Of course you do all those things, sorry if it sounded like I was preaching to the converted!
Maybe no need to tweak sun position etc if you just use a good spherical IBL in the environment slot. You can supplement the sun strength if you need to. Only problem using just physical sky is lack of real reflections.
Well I use physical sky for lighting but then I use an image for the reflection map. Yes I too am busy so cant really work on this. I usually tweak it for 30 mins to an hour every night and do some quick renders and then when happy (ish) leave a render on overnight to wake up pleasantly surprised - by how the image turns out Rich
My main machine is in constant use for work rendering things so this gets done on my lesser machine and sometimes my macbook air.
The concrete is from Thea forum not sure whose. Took me about a week to get the light to hit it correctly.

I think a good IBL would work out better rather than tweaking three different parameters for environment (sun/phys sky/reflection map).
I can make you a high res spherical afternoon hdr in the next week or so? I'm nice like that. Depends entirely on weather at moment though!

Yeah its grim here in London but I hear its a lot worse back home!
Thanks for that but dont put yourself out if its something I can get online. I did look at that website you linked me too earlier this week it had some good images.
I have been looking for one from inside a hanger for ages but cant find one.
If I make a hanger I am under the impression I create one from the model in THEA?

Yeah get in the middle of the hangar and set projection to spherical. Can use it then in any scene you do. Remember equirectangular must be 2:1 ratio ie 4000x2000. Camera height of 1500mm is good.
You can get some low res ones online...but not like mine
I'll see if I have time anyway, it's not a promise I'll just keep you in mind. 
I'm making them non-stop at the moment you see.Try even finding a hangar photo in the afternoon ( I tried last night and closest I got was a photo of a 747 in afternoon sun!)

I have a mate who works at Liverpool Airport at the private terminal. I might see if he can get a photo for me or if you intrested I can ask if you can go with your real camera, tripod?
Its probably a no as airports think everybody is a terrorist but I can check?
I used to take flying lesson and you could walk around etc but that was a few years ago. I think If you have permission and have somebody with you its ok. Then again you cant even take pictures in a train station now without a photo pass.

Yeah doubt I'd be able to get in there! Worth a try, likelihood of finding empty hangar might be remote though. I didn't know that about train stations! What's the world come to!

Oh the hanger wont be empty it usually has a few small planes and a helicopter in so probably no good.

Perhaps you are not looking for an abandoned hangar (and it's not free), but this seems not bad.

Also they have some free HDRI so you can try them.
Nice work Liam btw. -

Thats not actually not so bad as I think I could model that quite easily.
-
Was gonna say for what it's worth just model it! You are more than capable lol there is probably more geometry in your fuselage than the whole of a hangar!!

Yeah why do you think I offered to share the Thea file and not he SU. My billion poly model of course!
