Hello and thanks for taking your time to read this!

So I don't really know how to structure this, but I'll post a link to my Artstation aswell as post an image from a speed prop I made yesterday.

I'll soon start sending out my applications to various game studios across Sweden and I'm kind of nervous that I've not quite reached the required skill yet, other than that i would appreciate feedback on my texturing as it has been the part iv'e worked the hardest on the past months.

Thanks again for your time!

I looked at your portfolio. Pretty good. It's great that you're showing all the important information such wireframe, tri-count and textures. Employers need these.

Visually all the art looks fine, but you definitely need to work more on topology optimization. There's also a lack of variety in terms of time period / subject matter (maybe try making some mechanical / hard surface pieces).

Thanks for the feedback!
I'll keep it in mind and try to make more mechanical stuff to show of that as well, seeing how i more or less only have Fantasy stuff in my portfolio.

Your work is solid. At the same time, nothing really blows me away. I would try a hero piece. An asset that might be seen as the focal point of an environment. Something very interesting to look at. Doesn't have to be a whole scene but make it more complicated than what you've built so far. I think if you pull something more complex off at the quality of your other assets, that will go a long way.

Thank you for taking your time to give me feedback!

So maybe something like a diorama? instead of spending time on a whole environment i can make something on a smaller scale and still showcase vital skills.

Is this a good example of what you suggest i should do https://www.artstation.com/artwork/dOLDVA

Absolutely! It doesn't have to even be a diorama. I think these are great examples as well:

Just something on it's own that is just beautiful and eye catching. I would say the drawer/chest piece is not the most exciting subject matter but the attention to detail and the smaller props involved just add so much to it. I'm a character artist and this kind of env art really impresses me. Just a thought! I think you have the ability to do it, we just need to see it! good luck man!

Here's what i'm currently working on, i think it addresses a lot of the feedback iv'e gotten in this thread
Still some objects that are not textured as well as the wall texture is very simple
