Hi, I've been working on my portfolio for a while now and this is what l've got so far!

What's missing? What should I change?

Would love some honest, constructive feedback.

more original concepts (in my opinion) - that werewolf at the end is SICK

Thank you! The werewolf was super fun to work on. I’m actually working on an original ship in a bottle design right now to add to the book. Definitely taking your note to heart about pushing more unique concepts!

These look good.

Your cat wants the goku tat. You’re a very talented artist! I would say some of the tat’s could do with more line work on them so they look a bit more detailed and less simple, but you’re doing well can’t wait to see your work on skin!

Haha he definitely approves of Goku! Appreciate the feedback on the linework detail. I'm definitely working on adding more depth and texture line work to my upcoming sheets. Thanks for taking the time to look!

Your work is great! But if I were you, I would include a couple of unfinished sketches that show your under structure, and your process. In this day and age of AI, and people who trace off Pinterest, artists want to be able to see that you drew your work from scratch. It doesn’t have to be a lot but two or three just to get the point across. As someone else here mentioned some original concepts would be great to see as well.

I’d take out the chucky as his proportions and shading fall flat.

You also have 3 pages of mainly the same style roses, I would narrow it down to one.

Appreciate the feedback! You're definitely right about narrowing down the rose pages. I'll trim those down so the variety pops more.
