I would say that if you REALLY want to get into the game industry, you need to know what type of job you are going for and focus all of your energy on that. If you really want to make levels for an unreal based engine, then you had better spend most of your free time working on level design and not other things.

I would also recommend that if you are going to create a web site to consider spending a little bit more time on design and layout. Some of the text descriptions near the photos overlap and I can’t read some it. Also, your own domain name looks more professional and only costs around $7 a month for the name and 2-3 gigs of space.

You can obviously model, so why don’t you think up some crazy location for an unreal level and make one… The only way you’re going to get a job you really want, is to show people that you can make quality material that also looks good and is fun to play.

Good luck with your dream user added image

Thats strange about that text issue you are having, ive tested my page on a few comps to make sure it would work with different resolutions and things like that, I also tried it out on a mac to make sure it would workt here too. Would you mind telling me the web browser you use and resolution?

i agree with morg002 i also think that you should spend a little more time on your website design.

But I really like your models...

i use firefox with a resolution of 1400x1050 (on my laptop) and i also see a small text-overlap:
