About Me:
I started my adventure with 3D graphics in the middle of 90's with 3D Studio (the predecessor of 3D Studio Max and 3ds Max). When I started study of computer science I put 3D graphics aside. I went back to 3D in 2014 when I started to use Blender on the recommendation of my friend Piotr from Maxelus.net who uses Blender for modeling for mobile apps. I needed a fast education for archviz in Blender, so I signed into Architecture Academy created by BlenderGuru where I learned a lot about modeling and Cycles.
Since Cycles had its own problems with render quality and there was no PBR solution for Cycles at that time, in 2015, I started using Thea Render (with Blender as a modeler). In 2016 I had a short adventure with the Octane Render. When PBR appeared in Cycles, I started to make some trials (the Orange in the Kitchen project). Cycles still needed a huge amount of samples (4k-8k) to give clear renders for interiors so I started to put my interests into Unreal Engine. I bought some Udemy lesson, read many posts on UE4 forum, watched tutorials and started to use UE4.15 in June of 2017 till now.
I still use Cycles for exterior renders and prototypes and use my own made combo archviz material setbox (Archmat) for faster material creation. Blender is my favorite modeling tool that I use incessantly from 2014. I love it and I recommend it to everyone!
About "Bedroom:"
This project had no fancy name since this was just a regular archviz project for one of our clients. Interior was designed by my wife Gosia Muszynska who is an architect. Here I learned how to use Parallax in materials. Now I am creating an advanced and complex UE4 Uber-shader for archviz (ArCoMa) that will help me to make complex UE4 materials much faster and easier.
