Online Portfolio Design
The layout looks good and clean, you are wasting some space on the right that you can use for descriptions.
The problem I think you have is that there isn't any thing visually stunning. You are competing in a heavy saturated market and will need some thing to hook clients.
Most of your skills don't really have a visual element to show, however people will judge based on looks. I recommend getting a 3D artist to help with that helicopter.
I'm assuming this is for applying for jobs as there links to a resume?
It's a bit difficult to judge without the actual content but here goes:
- Image on the left is distracting and looks like CSS code (?) which isn't the main language/skill you want to showing off? I would remove the text from the background
- None of the projects have descriptions so I would leave room a paragraph or two per project
- Is the web design responsive? How does it look on a mobile device?
- If you are having that many YouTube embeds on a single page, it takes a huge hit on the page load time. I recommend 'lazy' loading them
- The font is quite wide per character making it quite hard to read the titles. I suggest using a narrower font
