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.

Piano room: the making of

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:

I've decided to publish the interpretation of my last artistical work I've published. Thus, in this post I want to inform my readers that in the "Making of" page for the project "Wind of Change", you can now find the complete interpretation. You may get to know exactly what each element is meant to symbolize. As a side note: all the impressions expressed in the text are purely subjective at the given time, thus they are subject to change over time.

The Wind of Change - the interpretation

I also published an application interface I made for VegaWeb Solutions and a CD/DVD cover for the same project. I hope you like it.

And, finally, I have decided to publish in the Scraps page, a poster-like image I've done several years ago. I very much like the colors :).

The Wind of Change

After two years of working on my new 3D image, I am proud to announce that today I finally release it. The final image is ready at a resolution of 5596x4028.

In 27 august 2005 I started working on this project. It's an image constructed as a diptych. It consists of two parts/sides which are in complete opposition.

This image is dedicated to Alizée Jacotey.

Thanks to Cinemike, Radu Filip and to Tor-Erlend for continued support and suggestions. I apologize if I forgot to list someone who provided me suggestions.

Technical details

  • Project size: 9,6Gb
  • Files: 1 560
  • Published WIP images: 300mb
  • Polygons: 2 917 023 [part 1] and 729 636 [part 2]

I also released a comprehensive "Making of" page in which anyone can see how I've worked on the project. For those interested, I published more technical details.
