a little more detail added, there has got to be an easier way to make those spikes!

thanks, but i'm just gonna massacre the model by texturing it, i'm really horrible at it and have been avoiding it so far, specially uv mapping, i just can't understand it.

here are two more images, i think i'm almost done modeling it, just a couple more spikes or something to add detail, i've been going at this all day today, its just so addictive

done some more work on the head, added fins, ( which are hard to see right now) a couple bumps and spikes and fixed the area around the eyes. i also added a fin at the back which should be mostly refined with texturing. at this point i think i'm done with the model, and am just about ready to start with the texture, so let me know if you see something that needs to be corrected or should be added. thx

can't sleep, so i thought i'd crank out some radiosity renders. as for the textures there are none right now, so the fin will look very plain, all i did was add a white colour to everything and give it some shine and reflection.
