Please, bigger thumbs. No one keeps their browser that small. Thumbs function as navigational elements for the viewer, if they don't show what is in the full image, they're useless other than to speed up the site by not loading all large images at once.
75x75 pixels minimum, and only crop moderately so that the thumb shows a clear example of what the final image contains.
Oops, also, the artwork is amazing, really great stuff man. You've really developed your 3d stuff.
Yeah, I really don't like the tiny thumbnails. I really love your artwork, and the site looks nice and clean, but I would definitely really prefer clearer, larger thumbnails.
I think we might be beating a dead horse, but the thumbnails have definitely got to change. Your work is phenomenal, and it needs to be seen. It would be easy for a potential employer, or even just someone looking for inspiration, to pass your site by simply because of the layout.
The content is awesome, but the design needs work.

hey, make each full sized picture a link back to the thumbnail page. hitting the back is for goblins made entirely of wicked genitals.

I second this!
Great work dude and the site is simple and straight forward. Also like someone mentioned that possibly splitting up 2D and 3D and maybe a WIP section for those few unfinished pieces.
Don't listen to Sextaurs, hitting the back (mouse-button or backspace, noob) is pro.
Also, to restate what i said in irc because you blatantly ignored me:
-Listen to Hawken
-Get rid of the penigina-smoking-thing and Samus, as they're the least impressive to me.
I'm glad you included kirbacman though, since i love that one.
looks real simple, real clean, real nice. only thing i can think is to seperate the images into sections (personal preference). i really like the epic test, mind if i could see the wireframe on that.

oh cory, that picture of you kind of scared me. i didnt know you were the man behind a lot of that work, good stuff man. seperate the 2d and 3d, or group by style, the painting and model for that wicked centipede baby are far apart from each other...they miss each other, bring them closer the way they wish to be.

I'd just increase a it the thumb's size, not much, just a tiny bit.
I like the dark scheme better. No bio or resume?
This one is still my favorite

Actually, all I would ask is that you find an image viewer w/ previous/next and I think it'd be a great site.
thanks!

-caseyjones
maybe 2d on the left and 3d on the right
bit confusing!

I kinda thought Samus might have been a joke, as that does not portray the usual quality of your work.
Also I hate the thumbnails, too thumbnaily, looks like some sort of game art gallery or something. lame.
i love you guys
