well, after 5 hours only 20% of the sky was done so I think this is on hold till I can figure what is slowing my workstation down...should have finished over nite...sigh. I'll start a new thread when I figure this out.

Did a wee test adding Richards God Rays answer before the Turner Sky clip and, using his Transform shader, moved the hole in the clouds towards the camera till the sun hit the ship...doing a test render now but that also seems to work O K.
No solution to the slowness though...sigh.
I think you better work on the terrain and objects first and then add the sky as the slowest last bit. I have a love/hate relationship with the (awesome) clouds, and am hardly ever patient enough to work on them for hours.
Btw. make a black square in PS, white soft dot in center and point that towards the sun with a camera, as a (inverse) mask for a hole in the sky; easy spotlight, no moving around of SSS's needed.
