The background looks better now, even though i did not mean to make it darker
but to use a softer pattern/color_map.

The problem with normals is that stronger effects always look somewhat faked, so
you should probaly be careful not making it too strong.  

I made a quick try with some isosurface slime, it's not nearly as disgusting as
your one and the textuing is slightly wrong, but it shows the possibilities.  

BTW, I used the blob pattern for the basic shape here.
