  Hi trace the lines,

  Your work definitely looks very "student", a lot of the stuff looks like it was made by following bad tutorials online.

  I would steer clear of cliche effects and grunge fonts, which you seem to have an affinity for... If you must use a grunge effect try and go about creating one on your own. That way you're bound to learn something along the way and you'll end up with a much more unique finished project.

  Also your site is a tad bit confusing. Is it meant to be a blog that just happens to have a portfolio? Shouldn't the portfolio be the highlight, not the blog? Also I didn't see any sketches.

  ..........
  

  

  
  This made me laugh!!

    people do like that grungie cliche effect, if that's the ultimate goal. let him stick with it and evolve if he so chooses.– doesnotexist2/3

    Thanks for the feedback. All very good points. I need to raise the bar. But more importantly: separate the blog and portfolio. :)– TraceTheLines3/3
