Yes the eye needs much more detail, right now its just a sort of button
on the surface with four of the polys textured black. The pupil
probably is too big although I must say, the appearance of its relative
bigness seems to depand alot on the texturing of it and the cornea. I
slight shift in reflectivity for instance and change that whole perception.

LOL, yes I had that pink texture for the inside of the mouth as a sort
of place holder then forgot about it. All I did was move the spot light
just a little closer to the camera location and suddenly, the pick
caught the light and... it's a cartoon mouth. That "cartoonish" problem
as been hounding this project from the start. I think that any time the
level of detail becomes generalized there is a tendency to see it as a
cartoon. That and there is the bizarre grimace of a shark's mouth
anyway. In one way I look forward to the problem. The shark's maw
hold's famous fascination and I want to examine it in more detail. But
modelling details on the inside area of a mesh can be exasperating too.

Thanks. I feel that the next pass will really make or break it.
