1 - I don't think the text above the piece work is so useful, they will just focus on the work before the text. (under the gallery title)

2 - Instead of " Artist : Portfolio", it's better to write down your title, so people can easily which kind of service you'll offer for them

3 - I've learn from a HR from Ubisoft that it's better to have a professional e-mail (which is your_name@...) more than a nick name@...

4 - WIP aren'tgood for a portfolio, never show an unfinish work for people

5 - Instead of showing the Eat3D's tutorial, you can use what you've learn in hard surface modeling to make a awesome and original piece from you

Holy shhh, i love your work that bulldozer looks awesome, but i also think that you're cheating your self in showing it off. (i wanna see it closer)
Apart from that the website is easy and simple to navigate, but i couldn't click on the sci-fi modular slide nor the temple wip. either way, im saving this to my inspiration folder.

Thanks for your comments sofar I have included the dozer as I only used the first few videos. I basically watched one, then I picked a totally different model of buldozer, gathered all of my own reference and used what I learnt to make my own. Its actually very different from the original version (barring the tracks as they were the first piece I made and I used the video as a step by step). I found it extremely helpful but I would never copy a tutorial totally because I find it a bit pointless! I totally understand where you are coming from but as it is very different I'm going to leave it in I will try to get the other links working tonight or tomorrow.

jsargent

ooh and I will make those other changes tonight too Thanks!

yeah , i agree with the EAT3d tutorial....basically the same man....

Yup take down the eat 3D tutorial dozer, or at least credit it to them. Also cant open the sci fi piece.

Rename your CV to jodysargentCV or something that'll remind people whose CV they've downloaded without having to open it.

I looked at the eat3d dozer and the OP's dozer side by side. There really is ALOT different between the two of them.

jsargent

thanks for the crit guys. I'm going to leave the dozer on there as I only uses the first couple of vids to get me started (as you can tell from the tracks) and worked on my own from there on. I made my own reference library of a totally different dozer and really tried to use what I learnt to make a separate piece which took a lot of work.

As for the other crits I have changed a few things like the name and updated some links, still lots of rendering and updating to come! Please keep the crits coming they really help!!

Thanks guys.

The only thing i say is , if you leave it there , indicate at least what you just said to us.... cause if i was looking to hire you and i see the dozer i would automaticaly think, what a copy of the eat3d.

at least say like '' i was inspired etc.. etc.. i got my own refs....i learnt alot bla bla...'' basically the samething that u just wrote up there.

I have followed the eat 3d tutorial and i was planning on making the same dozer as you. there is a fair amount of geomentry that is very different, however i do agree with other posters who have said you should at least say your work was inspired by the Eat3D tutorial. im personally planing on adding a different ripper to the back of mine to make it even more different but i see no problem with you using this peice as long as they can see its a different model

some nice work up there
