  I think you need to focus more on your material definition to really sell your work, Marmoset explain a few material reads pretty nicely.

  I'd get rid of the widget that loads the images and just display them directly. Your portfolio should be about the art, not about fancy web pages.
  
  In a shocking departure from my usual comments, I think your first scene could really use some more polygons in the appropriate places. The wall corner, for example, is much too sharp and could use a subtle chamfer to make it appear more natural. The camera also feels much too boxy; adding something as simple as a hood above the camera will add to its believability. I think you've also spent too much time & detail on the rear of the camera, which will probably never be seen.
  
  
  The doors seem to float above the wall, especially in the wall segment picture; part of the problem might be that the door frame is much too thick - it should be 1/4" above the wall at most. The round handles on the door just really don't look right; I'd recommend switching to a more common straight handle.

  Thank you all for looking over my portfolio.
  
  Material definition is one of my weak points, and I've know that for a while now.
  Probably going back to creating stand alone props and really nail the texturing before I continue with another environment.
