I'm currently working on my portfolio pieces for a project I have been on for the past 3 years. Always tend to forget how much work portfolio making is, I've been posting a lot lately but Artstation seems tricky to get any real incentive feedback nowadays. I would love to hear what works and what doesn't in what I have…
