For the portfolio, one simple thing is that we can not click on the images on the main page to see more details, we need to go to the Portfolio panel and find the correct name of the work we want to see.
Also, you shouldn't include all the work you did so far, only the best. Including your older school work might not be the best idea.
Good luck with your job hunting : )
Just replace the frontpage with images that contain links to your projects, carbonmade style. The website itself looks good
Cut the stuff you are the least sure off. Cut the cognition things, they dont look too great and the poses look super stiff and wonky. Cut the school stuff. Dont show the sketches neither. Even if they were amazing they would not matter too much unless they were incorporated into your 3d.
You also need to look up some layouting basics, having your text laid out like this
makes it look very unprofessional http://harishrajan.weebly.com/uploads/2/8/3/9/28396665/986673_orig.jpg
(and differently on every pic on top of it. Also use a sans serif, your website does it too) You are an artist, this makes me question your
artistic vision which is an important aspect.
why is a wolfenstein fan model in a category for a high castle game.
I also dont see any resemblance in your assets towards this high castle logo and background, implying desert and western (if its not western, then the person doing the logo did a poor job choosing fonts).
It could be for your favor to cut the logo.
The rocks also look soft and strange, i would not show them
The characters seem pretty good for that youre graduation now, but you could use
more polys especially at the girl, and youre missing ambient occlusion on most of them, making the lowpolies look awkward, but thats something you can fix.
Dont show too many redundant pictures. dont repeately show the same multiple times on a page. Less is more and makes the user more likely to click something.
Use the same blue background for your mobius stuff etc, grey background is a major turn off. Also all the heads
are cut off in your preview images. You can also put multiple people in one picture if they are no hero chars.
The about page looks rushed and bland, try pushing that up a little
What is a Harish ? Is that your name, a nick, a cleaning product ? : P
Not even on your about page is your name listed. Rethink your headliner
and maybe seperate text with color. Ah and get your own domain.
.weebly does not help, and its not expensive anyways.
Good luck then !
You should place your texture next to the model. At a glance I can only tell the freight texture but not too sure what the other 2 belong to.
