    You have some really great work in there for sure, and I do like the piece by piece presentation style. I love it when people show parts of their work like this and also the thought process.

    As far as suggestions, I guess I'm nitpicking here but I can't help wonder what it would look like with a more minimal aesthetic and drop the logo. It feels a little overdone for a personal portfolio. Also on some of the pieces, while like I said I like the collage style, I felt like the first thing I see is not the strongest part of it.

    On the Air Force piece for instance the illustrations are prominent, which IMO are less impressive than the ads at the bottom of the page. On KaosPilot you put the older piece first which is a little confusing - someone quickly scanning the page might confuse that for your own work. I would lead with the main, "final product" of the piece each time, and then perhaps start from the beginning, so that people can both quickly scan the pages and get the step by step story aspect of it.
