Hi polycounters. I'm a MFA student and I'm in the second to the last semester.

I made this website for apply some of summer internships but not went well so far :(

I was shy to show my portfolio to someone, but I feel that it's time to open it in order to check my current status and admit it.

Any of critics or comments are welcome about allover works and website designs. And also any advise or suggestions for my future works would be appreciated.

Hope you enjoy my works. Thank you

The sci fi hallway is my favorite. Its clean well designed and the you hit the nail on the head with the textures. I dont really have enough experience to go on but adding more Hi-Poly realistic game art with a high "cool" factor would expand your job opportunities. Again just a thought

Nice work, nice site layout good and simple, you should probably put atleast your name on your images in case any recruiter wants to save the image and goes back to it later, they're not going to remember who made it

I'm really surprised you are having trouble, I think your work is great dude. The middle piece has some weird spec going on where its shining too much in the recessed areas, but I really love the hand painted stuff at the top.

Great work, and just keep applying and working hard. I'm sure you will eventually find something.

I've seen your work before. Don't know where, but I remember the first render for sure. That's good, your work is memorable. I was impressed by your textures. Very nice!

Relax, it will take some time before you get hired. But with your hand painting skills, it shouldn't be too long. Make sure you are also applying for Texture Artist positions on top of the usual Environment/Prop art positions. You're born to texture. And you're in a great area too if you're still in San Fran. Did you try Zynga already? Good luck!

Edit: Also look into creating a LinkedIn page. Get your name out there in every way you can. Start networking with people in your area.

I have one suggestion, instead of having every image on one page instead put it into sections. So have one of those pictures and if you click it, it goes into a new page with more pictures. It just has to much stuff, loads slower, and also just takes to long to scroll down to.

I really love the hand painted feel of textures and you nailed it in that first environment. Good job.

I think your work is great, especially the fantasy scene. You are very good at hand-painted textures; very impressive.

Alot of your stuff looks great man, but I would narrow it a little bit. Like the robot above, I would remove. Only show your best work that you're most proud of. I would do the same with your 2d portfolio as well. You want to make it quick when someone looks at your portfolio and show them your best stuff first. And leave them no reason to doubt you. If you put unfinished or lower quality work in there, they might wonder.
