Yeah, the main thing for the mouth is to make the shader very glossy and specular.

hehe thanks for the compliments!!!

i have joined the legs to the body ( was a hell of job to do )
im still not very proud of it, but at least they are attached!!

i also have a question:
how to get rid of those strange unsmooth parts. it has to do with the polygons wo are not connect smooth to each other... but how can i make them smooth??? ( see picture with red lines around them ).

sorry for the large image!!

i don't know about smoothing the parts but i wanted to ask you how you made your teeth if you don't mind me asking
looking good though but i think the legs could do with being fatter at the top where they jion to the body
thanks
Rob

thank you for the tips Krull, but im affraid none of your tips helped
i think its because i have a lot of triangles around that place!!! tomorrow i will try to make only quadrangles around there!!

ooh and uuh, could you explain what you mean with: "it will probably the stars" Sharp!! thank you!!
