Layout is nice. Good looking site overall.

Image 1, the wasteland level prototype is really blurry. On top of that, a large section is mosaic (censored?). Also, the bricks are gigantic. This image could be re-rendered better.

The textures are fine, but they could be presented better in a scene.

Image 3, BSP arches is, again, fine, but could use something more. It could also use some serious dirtying up as it appears almost untextured.

Sniper Rifle scene (minus the scorpion) looks better than the rifle itself. I blame the texture, is should be redone.

The presentation on the knife is confusing because it’s sitting (small) over it’s own texture. This leads to it all blending together.

Thanks dude,

The wasteland level prototype is really quite old, I don't have the source files for it anymore to re-render, that was an in-game shot, and it's all be tossed to the trash unfortunately, and yeah, that's a censored logo.

BSP Arches, I'll be working on a scene for it when I have time, i'll next-genorize it with some proper textures.
Same for the sniper rifle realloy, redoing the texturing, will keep the diffuse pretty much as is, but with spec, bump and a cube map, and rendered in-game, going to present all of my work in-game.

I'll be presenting the knife in-game also, so I can spit the texture from the model, the reason it's rendered like it is is because I wanted the texture to be the key as that was my work for the knife, also taking your crits into account for the textures, I'll be rendering them in a pure black enviroment.

Catch ya' later,
Aaron.

Just noticed the resume page isn't scrolling, d'oh I'll fix that.

Pankake · 12-04-2006, 05:13 PM

In your Extended Portfolio and Resume pages, you've just got a Home button replacing the site navigation.

Currently, all the pages on your site are all top-level pages so they should all be accessible all of the time from the same place on every page. So keep your full main navigation there on all of the pages and just add a Home button to the main navigation.

Your resume page is all one big image? Make it text! Much easier for us to read, you to update, search engines to index and it'll look better without jpeg compression artifacts. Also the web url on it is out of date

Yeah I can do that I'll try and sort that out tonight

I've been meaning to do that, just too busy, I have some time now though, so I'll drop a line if I've made the changes, if not, I've ben playing Splinter Cell: Double Agent
