I started this project a few months back but now I have built it up a bit, felt it was worth sharing on here too.
http://gameartportfoliowall.com/
Its simply just a collection of awesome game art portfolios with preview images for each one. I always struggled to keep track of all the cool portfolios I come across so made it as much for my self as anyone else really.
Let me know if I am missing any from the list as I am sure there are tons still to add.
Note: They all have links to the original site but its only recently I started to add text links too. For some of the older ones you need to hover over the image and click the chain link in the top right.

Just to note, I think Haz is changing over to: http://www.hazardousarts.com/
thanks, will add yours to the list later too some awesome stuff
No problem and thanks for the heads up will update that later.
Would be better if one did not have to change pages, like if you had 3 rows of portfolio each page or unlimited scrolling.
Dat hair! (right side) http://www.hazardousarts.com/Images/tutface_03.jpg
Some great portfolios up there...and mine. Also the image you have for mine is super old.
Been thinking about that a lot, though for the moment I really like the massive previews.
Sure man
Awesome thanks!
Yeah your right some of them really out of date, worked though some of them just there now and will get through the rest tomorrow.
Looks like you left out Jeff Parrott's last name.

Thanks for sharing.
+1 now i've sorted my hosting
Cool site, and from a staffs'er :thumbup:
haha yeah not for much longer though just trying to get my own portfolio sorted for grad ex now.
It might be fun to take a snapshot of portfolios every few years and see how they progress over time.
Thanks I will look though that.
hmmm I guess that does make sense...
Went though and updated a few of the older posts a few days ago as some of the images are getting out of date. If you notice any that need updated or want to suggest a new one to add PM me on here or hit me up on my personal twitter
http://rogelioolguin.wordpress.com/ or you can link both either way
You could probably write a cache script that just snap shots front pages for you automatically every week or so... depending on your web programming skills of course lol.
Thanks for the site, much appreciated.
yeah that would be an awesome solution that I have thought about before but my web programming skills don't go beyond basic HTML and CSS some would say very basic haha.
The site still gets awesome traffic btw guys an average day is between 20-40. Not massive but clearly people find it useful
I think it would be a lot simpler as an endless column without having to click to turn pages.
Also; here's the thread of portfolio's that Xoliul mentioned earlier: Alec Moody's Big List of Portfolio's
Ace Angel also compiled portfolio's into categories shortly after too: 3D Portfolios & 2D/3D Portfolios
Perhaps these could be useful for you
Cheers Del yeah I really must go through those links.
As for the number of posts per page I have it set to the max that tumblr allows, not sure if I can dig into the code and change that or not though.
