[Portfolio] Sean Donaldson
Hello guys!
Used to hang around these parts a couple of years back back when I was at university. Started to miss the place so im back, could not remember my user name so just made a new one.
Been working pretty damn hard since ive been gone, I hope it shows. The newer stuff is at the top while most the older ones are near the bottom. Trying to focus more on concept art than illustration lately, as I feel it will help me tremendously in breaking into the industry.
Any crits of this portfolio would be well apreciated and taken on board. Currently have just finished university and seeking full time work in the game industry or similar area. Thanks for taking the time to check my stuff out!
Oh and if you need a closer look, check out my gallery in my sig. Cheers!

I do like to try new things with my art, specifically for the gaming industry. Here is a link to some YouTube videos of a couple of models I made early this year. There is also a speed painting of one of the underwater sea creatures in there showing some of the processes I went through to make that.

I had to skin and rig them etc for a 90 second animation. Though I dont consider myself to be a modeler I do like to challenge myself in those areas. I think its all to do with that satisfaction of finally seeing one of your creations/designs come to life that I like about that, my favorite part of modeling is working in Zbrush for the normal mapped version, while my weakest point is unwrapping a character, I think I need more practice there and get a lot faster so it dont seem like such a long winded chore. The same with modeling, the more you do it then less frustrating it becomes.
cuz they seem so slapped on randomly...
they dont look good
your work is nice tho. i suggest giving them a common borderline strength,
spaces and color and such things. if u do worry about appearance beyond the content of the pics themselfs
i mean it seems you kinda do it but then u just do it allmost .. whys that
Talbot: haha! Thanks!
from what I hear doing concept art is THE hardest and most competitive field out there in the world of art. Good luck to you!
I clicked the link in your sig and it took me to your devArt page, are you eventually going to make a portfolio site? You have a lot of great work, would be a shame to only present it via deviantArt.
carlo_c: Thank You! Yeah I actually have another site though its not really what im after. Currently im saving up some money doing freelance work to pay for a proper site and get someone with the know how to set it up for me. Deviant art as it stands seems to be effective enough for now in terms of showcasing the artwork.
Cody: Thank You! Glad ya liked it!
JohnnyRaptor: Thanks! Ill try my best!
EricV: So true man! Its a competitive world out there. Its what I love doing though, illd be doing this stuff even if I never got offered a job, its just something I enjoy doing.
