It's really difficult to post this to complete strangers, but I do love this website. I know I'm not as active as other Shackers but this site's been a good resource for me for many years. I am sort of freaking out about trying to get into the real world after six years in college. My original hope was to somehow make it into the video game industry. To that end, I pursued a second degree in multimedia at a school here in Tempe, AZ.
Long story short, I'm graduating in May and am worried sick about finding work as a static 3D modeler/texture artist/God-willing, a writer. I want to stay in Phoenix more than anything but will have to go with whomever throws me a bone. You can see my portfolio at www.bmnathanson.com. It's the best I've been able to do. Just wanted to know if it's good enough to take a chance on or am I totally boned because I can't do enough? I applied to Rainbow but they canceled the job posting. I'm also trying Cheyenne Mountain but after that the pool gets shallower. 2xl games is out here but they've not updated their site in two years...

Im not exactly the best person to critique your work though, Environments are more my thing. But, I am doing the whole "get a game job" thing right now too, and all I can do is pass on the advice I've heard.
The best thing I can say I already said before. Get on a board like polycount and get everything critiqued from your models and textures, down to your website. There are a lot of industry veterans on there that have great advice. It is a painful experience to be torn apart, but it will help.
