DaveParticipantVery nice Akinyinka, it gives a good impression of who you are as a designer. I like the paintings.
You could beef up the constuction and technical side a little more. Also think about tailoring the emphasis towards the job you’re applying for. Always ask the question “what is it they need most”, is my best advice.

Kyle H. Crooke, ASLAParticipantAkinyinka, much improvement over your original version. However, I still think you need to work on the lineweight for the memorial design part, try using four to five line widths, e.g. (000, 00, 1, 2, and 3), and if the firm is only looking for a designer, cut back to only two pages of your art work and remove the word “art” from the cover and inside page.
Best of luck to you.

InactiveI’m also a big fan of yours landplanner. I’m sure one day we’ll be able to sit down and have a cold frosty somewhere on this tiny planet.

InactiveKeep up the good work. Can you tell me what types of software programs you use for 2D rendering?

mauiBobParticipantYES! Now that’s more like it. I’m still not sure about the lone man standing against the wall for the Memory Garden project. Photoshop him out. Anyway, it looks really good. Nice balance of work.

Akin AdekileParticipantThanks! I’m already getting some replies from firms. Not being totally ignored as much:)

Akin AdekileParticipantLandscape planner, autocad and photoshop were used for the 2d renderings.

samwel kimaniParticipantHi. I think your portfolio is quite good especially the renderings are wonderful. However I do not know why you chose the black cover page and page one since, I believe the front page should create strong attention to the eye and give the viewer the desire to see the rest of the contents. I mean some bright colour scheme whether monochrome or combination of several colours could do better. Otherwise, I wish you well.
