so, I spent an embarrassing amount of time on this - and I’m still not super happy with it. the moon light really doesn’t come through to well and there is still a lot of dead space at the foot of the bed. also, the cycles rendering takes a while.
Cycle and Eevee are two very different render methods. Eevee is more for gaming (render speed).
Spending time, is because of inexperience Blender usage. And a having good project plan.
In the start of the Blender course, lot’s of people are creating beautiful scenes (like this one).
Using their knowledge of that moment. But there is still much to learn with Blender.
Try to finish your project and do the next challenge. Your skill will improve. Less frustration and more fun!
