I'm just finishing up my first year of college so I figured I'd put a bunch of my work together and make a small site. I'm updating it with new stuff as I make it, but I'm interested is seeing what people think.
Any comments are welcome, thanks in advance. |

I like it. Except the text, the way it goes right up to the edge of the image on the main page. You can work around this by adding a border with the same colour as your webpage background.
Your models are pretty damn cool. Nice work. I liked the progress sketches in the traditional section. Yourlife drawings weren't anything special, so I would suggest you work on them.
Hope that helps. |

Thanks I knew I'd get some good feedback here =D
As far as life drawing goes I'm really looking forward to my second year of college. I've decided to focus on Classical animation as far as formal education goes so I'll be doing a lot more life drawing and traditional work. I really can't wait ![](images/smiles/icon_smile.gif) |

Eh nice website. I love gray.
I don'T know if you wanted to know what people thought about your website's design or the content.. So .. anyway here goes nothing and ignore at will !
Altho you might want to compress the size of your images a bit more.. It's not everyone that has high speed connections (Luckyly I'm surfing from work ah!)
I watched your animations by the way. And would suggest that you could ask your teachers to provide you with real storyboards to study. It really helps to get a feel of the pace you should have for the story and break it up nicely. A simple idea for an animation is usually very short. The viewer is intelligent and doesn't need 8 shots to grasp an idea..
A bit of reading on character posing and dynamics would also be a good idea. You probably know about the BIBLE for animators called "Illusion of Life". You school probably (or at least should) have it
Ps.: that first life drawing is excellent ! ![](images/smiles/icon_smile.gif) |

I agree in most part with the before mentioned. I'd try to mix up the header typefaces from the sub-paragraph typefaces - on some pages it all seems to run together (exploer CSS - it's easy stuff really).
AND the big killer:
If there's a link back to home on your secondary pages, it isn't an intuitive find. Make sure you have one!
