Your website out shines your artstation by a long way as it stands. I'd use that if you are going to use one. That said. Artstation is acceptable as a portfolio site for the employers at our studio.
Hey guys, So I am starting to seriously apply and look for a 3D artist position in the gaming and film industry. I currently have my own website: www.jroscinas.com and Artstation portfolio: https://www.artstation.com/artist/johnnrosh (I need to add a few more artworks here still) Would you suggest I use my own website or…
I audibly groan every time I have to look at a portfolio that isn't ArtStation. Slosh and EQ have proven with 2 responses why there are major pitfalls with personal website. More often then not, a personal website actually looks poorly upon the artist with it, rather than positively. No one will complain about an…
At least for me I hang around Artstation so much I feel more at home looking at artstation portfolios rather then personal one's, since every portfolio kinda works the same you can focus on looking at the art and don't have to figure out how people have set up their website.
Hmm, I'm not sure I agree with this. If you're stuff is strong, its strong. What I will say is just linking to your community artstation is not ideal. I would build a proper website using their tools and use that as your link.
I'm pretty sure they already know about artstation and have already been looking there anyway, but if you send them to your portfolio and not your community page then it would work exactly like any other portfolio anyway, more so if you add your custom domain as well.
Personally I prefer peoples dedicated portfolios, I find artstation in my experience can be pretty bloated and often means it takes me longer to load images on there at a lower resolution than on peoples personal sites. The primary advantages of having your own site and using that are that it's your own space that you can…
I've found a good compromise is to have a direct link to artstation in your website menu bar, that way if someone wants to follow you or prefers that viewing method, they have the option up front. Personally I think your website is really nice and professional, then again as a non- web design person, the best I hope for is…
either or.....its the content of the portfolio that matters above all else. A slick site filled with mediocre art work isnt going to get anyone very far. same with artsation. Just get some amazing work infront of the right people. one advantage you have with artstation is it's pretty much a social media platform, you can…
I was going to default to ArtStation as its definitely the safest bet. But I opened ur personal site at home with no problems unlike some others here, (they make great points though as @"Quack!" mentioned. But I really liked ur personal site, very clean and easy to use. However, AS is safe to ensure you appease the widest…
