Space Jets landed on Helicarrier
The project is based on the lesson course, in which 3 URP assets were created, with different quality settings for use by high end desktop computers to HMDs and low performance mobile devices. The jets' glass material was replaced with a blue transparent Lit material and fine-tuned. The Reflection Probe component was added to the ground object with again Lit material, fine-tuned appropriately to achieve the desired environment (skybox) reflection effect. Screenshots attached taken with the High URP asset.

Entrance of HiQ Tower
This is just a quick screenshot from the game/project I'm working on after I included URP and the different render settings. Nothing fancy.
