Mega Monster Model - WIP: whachu think?

wip
1

I dont know if i should really be posting in Professionals... but i do want some professional feedback... (this is my first posted WIP)

I'm 15yrs old, and really interested in 3D... and this is one of my first models that i plan to finish, and rig, and everything (the others failed miserably in some area or another) but now... i have enough skill to model him, and with some help from these boards, rig him decently...

So, what do you all think ?? It didn't take me very long, but what suggestions do you have??

(also, some things i'm already aware of, and in the process of fixing, are: the forhead ridges... and, the mouth / lips. )

oh yeah, and hes not exactly a "mega Monster model" but... i just felt like some 'M' words...

the more i look at this model... the more i become unsatisfied with it (it looks similar to the concept pic i drew) but, i want to make a character, that will fit relatively in any envoirment (so i can use him/her whatever, in my animations for testing new things i learn...)

so, since no one really gave feedback, and i dont really plan on further changing this model... i'm not that hurt sniff sniff ...however, i would like some comments on my general modeling...

well, my friend wanted to see what this would look like colored, so i just made a quick blinn, but it looked pretty cool, so i thought i'd share it with you guys...

just a quick responce, its quite late here...
as the eye is the main focus (no pun intended)
it would pay to get it right.....
its an image on a sphere right?
eyes arent images on spheres.
flatten out the coloured (forgotten technical term for it) piece and add some variation to its specular responce, (to stop it looking glased over) then to keep maintain a sphere shape add a shiney clear piece over the front.

fir the render include somthing bright behind the camera somewhere for the eye to reflect......

thats a start...
good luck.

yeah, i can understand that, but when i did that before... it looked exactly the same as if i did a single sphere that had a phong material, instead of just dual spheres, with one being a clear coating...
