Haven't seen work of that caliber in a long time. The shader work pushes it to 'stellar'. Bravo.

Visceral

jaw dropping!

Very impressive work, but I can't help but feel like 2 minutes is a long time to show just two characters. I often spend less time than that browsing a whole portfolio of work.

Basically what I'm saying is; show us more!

Also, I've never worked in the games industry but shouldn't you have some realtime stuff in your reel if you plan to gain employment in that industry?

Very impressive!! though I got a bit disappointed when I saw it was all high-poly stuff, if you learn how to transfer all that detail to real-time game meshes you'll be even more awesome For CG-stuff you're good to go

Yea, you should work on some low-poly stuff. A thing about the reel though - This isn't your thesis final, it's your demo reel. Drop the school anim at the beginning and the thank you page at the end. These things aren't relevant to applying for jobs.

ikken

terrific work!

did you have any formal art-education before TTC?
you mention some kind of art school on your profile page, but nothing specific

(one more thing - I'd remove the cyclops from your gallery, it doesn't look on par with other characters, and is kinda disturbing at the same time)

Good work, wrong sub-forum

Agreed, never understood the idea of doing this... as for your work, your modeling is really good, though it would be good to show some more characters of the same quality which I'm certain you could do.

Usually for me too, but I was engrossed for the whole reel... there was some detail keeping my jaw dropped every second...

stunning work,
but i would change the background color of the knight renders on your folio
seems kind of too dark

if your looking for a job, MPC needs junior modelers for multiple projects (and I hear CIS is looking for artists too)

Malus

Fantastic pieces, well done.
