   Hey folks Just wanting some critiques on my portfolio site layout. Some heads up: -The demon warrior on the front page, I'll be doing him in full 3D. The black & white concept sketch is just a place holder for now. -3D Art section is fleshed out the most. -I'll be putting name, email, web address on each image. -It's no…

   Try dropping the Home-page and let the 3D art-page be the first thing your visitor sees.

   is it just me or do the nav links at the bottom switch locations depending on the page im on? might wanna check that. I would also suggest dumping the "home" page and just have the index be the 3d art page. - oh ... that was mentioned.

   Yes yes, keep the comments coming. I'll be working on it in the coming months and your coments are invaluable. @Alphavader: Yeah, its because I'm using MS Word... and I've been fighting with it as it screws up my images.

   Pretty good overall. But my advice, don't make any more porn elves and other extremely cliche anime-like characters. Check out this article covering the common portfolio mistakes: http://www.gamecareerguide.com/features/963/porn_elves_and_other_offenses_of_the_common_student_portfolio.php

   I’m not a fan of standalone home pages on portfolios, just extra clicking to do. The font on the buttons all seems a different size I’d suggest having a standard size across all of them. And maybe you should present all your pieces of work in a similar style, the way you presented the space marine was best I think.

As you know this is a diverse ever changing industry and you have to…
