3D artist portfolio

Here is the first draft of my portfolio, please feel free to crit. I'm thinking of losing the flash section and making a seperate portfolio for that, so no need to look at that bit.

I don't fully get what flash section you are losing, hopefully you mean the flash interface. It really is not something you would want to have as your portfolio. Your portfolio should be easy to use, very obvious interface etc. You can use some flash animations to spruce up the navigation or some other elements. I don't want to use so many keys to navigate on a website. I want to use the mouse to quickly go through images etc. Maybe that's a personal preference but I believe many people will share that too.

Thanks for that, I too was a bit dubious of using a flash interface. Just an attempt at thinking outside the box for something eye catching, but if that is distracting from the content then clearly theres a problem.

Thanks again for the response.

Make it simple to use and no time-wasting. Go straight to the subject, people hate to waste their time while seeing portfolio, which are presentations of your works.

Make it simple like theses:
- Vincent Mayeur - Portfolio - 3D Artist
- 3D Artist Portfolio | Professional Work
- Alan Van Ryzin - Freelance Game Artist - Weapons
- Kolby Jukes Character Artist Portfolio
- simonfuchs.net - Portfolio of Simon Fuchs
- Ilya Nedyal Portfolio
- Paul Svoboda - Environment Artist

Thanks a lot for those links, was useful to see some good simplistic examples. I'll be giving this a lot of thought in the next few days and hopefully get something more useable sorted out soon.
