Really nice, I wouldn't say but works

Ya, I know about that

I have seen some screen shots of some peoples maya scenes where a dome of some kind is around the scene and a beautiful sky or even a menacing sky if needed for that type of scene

Maybe there is some script out there that can do this

Even LW has a pretty intuitive sky maker

it's all just about the texturing.... sometimes u need to apply a certain 3d texture to get the kind of clouds you are aiming for and other times you need to tweak the suns azumith to get the right colored sky... just a combination of things really. there isn't a press button for pretty sky unfortunately, gonna hafta get your hands dirty

Try painting the sky with paintfx (clouds, stars...)

I just made a half dome and turned the incadescense all the way up than mapped an image to it

I know I have scene some scenes where a really nice sky is mapped some how to a half dome
