Unfortunately the games where I did my best work are still a long way off from being shipped. By re-doing some work you mean start from scratch and make a new church? Because re-using parts…
I could understand them not wanting the art for their project showing up in your portfollio, especially with the amount of time they still have left (going from your 'five year' comment). They might let you upload select bits of art; the ones which pose no risk to them. If you can spin it right, they might allow you to…
