Some images were very dark.
A couple of the designs seemed very simplistic compared to the remainder. Could they have been done earlier in your career?
Judging from the majority of the images we can tell you like....
-cylindrical columns
-round lights
-dark, moody scenes
-tile
-very tall buildings
-swords
-large deer heads
Many of the images appear to be very similar meaning not a lot of variation.
Were these developed with gaming in mind?
Thanks for sharing them with us. I would have liked to see more variety and better executed exterior images (not so dark). One would think you live in the land of the midnight sun.
You seem particularly interested in architectural elements. What is your background?
Was this done for a course you took at university? What grade did you get?

You seemed to have skipped over many of the questions I asked.
Subscribe to your channel? Why? Are you seeking a job?
Are you self-employed or do you work for an architectural firm? If you work for an architectural firm which one is it?
What major projects have you worked on specifically?
Of the projects you have worked on can you provide us with images (digital photos) of the finished work so we can compare your design to what was actually built?

I am currently unable to view the video. Perhaps later.
If you are trying to impress other architects wouldn't it be a good idea to include images of actual projects you have worked on and photographs of the finished work for comparison? I would think that the combination of real work examples and imagination/fantasy examples would better serve your purposes.
Where did you do your studies?
I feel a little more variety in your portfolio would be a plus.
Your profile says Angola but you are actually in Canada. Were you born in Angola and moved to Canada?

Hmmmm.....where did you go?
Assuming you are shopping your portfolio around in the hopes of getting a better paying job I have some suggestions for big, imaginative projects that might be of interest to a wide variety of architects. These would be such things as....
Municipal/government buildings (ex. - administrative offices)
Municipal service buildings (ex. - water treatment plants)
Airports
Museums
Convention centers
Entertainment complexes (ex. - concert halls)
Sports centers/stadiums (ex. a velodrome or soccer stadium)
University dormitory or a school building (classrooms)
Shopping mall
These types of projects are numerous and done world-wide so you would make yourself open to more responses from all over the world. In other words try to appeal to the widest possible audience that you can to increase your chances for gaining new employment.

So, has your video gone viral yet?
I guess "moe" from Angola by way of Ontario, Canada has given up. Maybe he'll return again next year. I fear his dream of getting hired as an architect will go unfulfilled.
