Hi all, portfolio update! I took on board most of the crits below, re-edited some stuff, re-rendered some images, and added some high res sculpts. I'll also be adding a Zbrush sculpt section soon. I have a few images ready for that section but I want to finish of my anatomy studies before including it. Please check it out and let me know what you think. All crits and comments on the site and my work are more than welcome. Thanks for looking!

    I like the site a lot, clean and simple, that's the way to go! Sub-pages and presentation are very neat and nice to look at!

    Some critique:

    - Wireframes would be better to read if not triangulated! (Scarecrow, Survivor, Wombats)
    - The textures maps are quite small to see, maybe give them a separate picture.
    - Also some short written introduction on the sub-pages why you made the project and what you wanted to achieve would be interesting.
    - And last: Maybe consider making your clickable E-Mail address more visible and present!

    Overall really clean and pleasing to look at presentation!

    Didnt get why you start over 100 new threads with your folio ;)
    but its a good improvement.
    Simple and has nice stuff in there.
    Iam not a big fan of the big stripes on the preview images.
    Rest looks okay ;)

    Good portfolio and like the site but you might want to consider adding some high poly sculpts to it just to widen the range of jobs you can apply for.

    Agreed with the others.
    This is more of a work crit, but I did notice something though, probably worth changing.
    The scarecrow has a crap load of unnecessary polys here:
    2d4hJ

    You can see the different densities of the polygons. And the rope is way too high!

    Thanks for the feedback guys. Nice to know I'm on to a winner with this version. I'll take on board every crit and get it sorted. Sorry for posting another thread about my portfolio. I wasn't thinking when I started this one. Updates coming soon. Thanks again!

    The site is nice :icon60: Furthermore: Get rid of the wombats, they are in my opinion the weakest piece in your portfolio and are not on the same level regarding quality and detail as your other models.

    And last: Make the top email also clickable ... no point in showing a non-clickable email. Make it as simple as possible to contact you!
