Your models could do with more info (wireframe shots, number of tris, textures)

[PhilipK]

Seems like they are all untextured highpolies though, so wireframes or tri/vertex-counts are irrelevant really. With that said, you'd probably do well to actually take those models all the way to a lowpoly with textures.

Nice job on the levels.

Thanks guys, yes, the models are highpoly so I figured it would be pointless to display the tri/vertex counts, I'm in the process of learning to UV/texture to a standard at which I'm happy with so in the meantime I'm not texturing my models.

Not bad, not bad at all!

Just make sure you finish your stuff! Having nice high polies on your portfolio is important, but at the moment it's all I see!

For env artist positions you need to prove you have what it takes to make high polies, low polies, uv, bake, texture, etc! Work on that and you're off to a great start!

HP's nailed it on the head with this one, just want to see more variety and areas covered

I love the R34 btw, I want to skin it and take it for a spin!

It's quite the handfull to learn I must say, I'm almost there with UV'ing, I can bake normals, still learning some optimization techniques for low polys and I have yet to get around to learning to texture. I'm generally still just wading through endless tutorial videos and explanations, but texturing requires tons of practice so it's going to be quite some time before I'm happy with my level of ability with it.

I'm going to Uni this September, so I'll be able to dedicate 3 years into learning all the thing's I need to. (Hopeully going to do a game design course)

And thanks for the info HP!
