im getting a domain tomorrow and will write the about/contact/commission pages plus all the actual project pages.
so far its just thumbnails and archive, but do tell me what you think of it and how well it runs

just pretend youre a small indie dev looking for interns who are cheap and young

It's good for what it's worth but the site itself is really ugly. You should organize it in a way that isn't just objects in a white background that appear when you hover over them, because that's just annoying.
Maybe do a slideshow type thing you can click on? Organize them in a grid?

There's also some pretty heavy focus on the tits of the PulseBlaster thing.

if they "appear when you hover over them" something is wrong, theyre just supposed to load instantly, the only thing that supposed to load when you hover is the text title

lol now im just curious what youre seeing because that sounds pretty concerning

I had to zoom out really far and then scroll back in for them to be in the right place. My bad.

Youre more than likely good enough to work for an indie dev,
BUTT

This work is all over the place. You should either focus on a single thing or break up your art into different sections. I know youre a student, but the site looks like some sort of hybrid blog between homework and fan art. You REALLY dont want to look like a student if you want to work on game assets/art.

Thats my hot handful of cents

you are right im hoping to replace a lot of the current content with just game-art and work more on the main page. like making the thumbnails vertically thinner and grouping the three-panel pattern per project, that way i can add more detail to one specific project

yeah more organization would make the whole thing real nice. i really like it otherwise


how is squarespace to use? i'll probably be doing this in a couple years

Tits are centered and the zoom is noticeable on medium-high resolutions, first thing I noticed when I clicked the page was shiny metal tits
