I'm Marius, the guy who does everything with pixels. This is
my blog in which you may read my artistic writings - in Romanian,
find Work In Progress [WIPs]
images and opinions about different aspects of today's trends. Have
fun readin' it.
The entire site is chock-full of texts and images. If you do not
enjoy reading, you may miss the purpose of these pages.

This project was an exercise to do a 3D interior as fast as
possible. My last projects took about 1 to 2 years to finish, so I
really wanted to prove myself I can do one fast. This one took me
only 3 weeks to finish at a slow pace. So, it's a real improvement.
Done with C4D and Vray. It's a reproduction of a photo I found on
the Internet.
The quality is not top notch. The major culprit is the plant
and, of course, other minor details, such as the books on the
shelf, the curtains and others. Despite these minor flaws, I really
like the overall mood which is a positive one, very intense light;
it has a certain sense of freshness. Here's the image:
I hope you guys like my new image ;).

Salut, oameni buni!
Am luat decizia să continui să mai scriu texte artistice. Ultimul
text artistic a fost scris pe data de 1 decembrie ... 2007 ;). Voi
încerca să schimb stilul într-un proces lent. În mod evident, acest
text este în stilul obişnuit:
Mai ştii tu soare cum îmi ziceai tu "lumină", în ploaia de raze
solare? Atunci când ale noastre lumini erau contopite într-o
metaformă omogenă ce plătea tribut zeilor, iar neuronii noştri
calmi dansau un vals cu capetele bulbucate de un exces de
ocitocină. Lumina omniprezentă eclipsa sinapsele neuronilor din
lobii frontali, astfel încât funcţiile vitale supravieţuirii erau
doar un reflex. Deşi ea pâlpâia ca un neon defect, era a noastră şi
era bună. Numai o scânteie a fost necesară ca o revoluţie la
rezoluţie mică să se petreacă. Acum, în cea de-a doua zi a genezei,
când lumina şi întunericul sunt două entităţi diferite şi
cuantificabile pe plan conoscitiv, ale noastre lumini sunt la ani
lumină distanţă fiindcă quarkurile ce compun materia grea a
entităţii tale sunt suboptimal aliniaţi şi astfel un proces de
repulsie reciprocă a decis soarta. Întunericul ne învăluie precum o
pauză în infinitul etern, asigurând pacea. Când repauzat voi fi,
lumina mea nu va înceta a mai fi, dar a ta lumină fără fond cu mult
timp înaintea repaosului etern va fi stinsă.
Inefabilul a prevalat iaraşi.

Hey guys!
I finished a comprehensive "Making of" page for
the piano room
project which details how I modelled the most complex objects,
the most complex shaders I used and how I rendered and
post-processed the images. Click on the following image to get to
it:

Hello readers!
Today, I'm proud to announce a new personal project I completed.
During the last year I worked on a photorealistic 3D scene for
further advancing my skills in architectural visualisation. With
this project I learned a lot about Vray and about lighting ;). The
project consisted of reproducing an entire room in 3D. I'm happy
now to see it done.
Please click on the images below to see more and to read more about
the project:
I hope to post more stuff during this autumn, perhaps a "making of"
or tutorials along the project.

Hello, fellas and playas! ;)
It's mid-summer and it's also a very long time since I posted
anything here. I am rather busy to post anything. I've been working
on several book covers since my last blog post and, of course, on
my big project: the piano room (for the latest wips check this
forum post on the VrayforC4D forums). I've been unable to
complete the final renders, due to crashes and very long render
times, in early march, this year. A few days ago I resumed work on
the project. I hope to get it done this year.
For more details about each book cover, please click on them. Here
they are:
For the Faronir
novel written by Michael Auerbach, I tried
a different approach, which I hope was successful. Until now, I
always had to do book covers on scientifical subjects, like
artificial intelligence, robotics and mathematics. I never had to
deal with literature. Being the first book of this kind, a science
fiction novel, I wanted this cover to stand out in my gallery. I
hope you find it great. A great amount of effort and time was put
into getting the book cover right.
Besides book covers, I
also did the logo and the new interface for the PaintWeb project of my
twin brother. Some of the frequent visitors of
our site already saw the new logo, but for those who did not, here
it is:
I've also done other small projects, but I won't post them since
they are unsignificant.
'Til next time, I wish y'all the best and have a nice summer. I
hope to be posting more stuff during the year.
