  No offense intended, but the current texture just doesn't look good,
IMO. It's one of those "beginner POV-Ray user textures". It doesn't look
realistic nor does it blend in the image (even if the image is supposed
to be a more abstract one).

  Even if you want a green texture with pink spots, you can still make
it look like it is the skin of a real critter, which really is there
among the other objects. It just needs a bit more work.

  Maybe a normal pattern and a proper finish could do marvels. Perhaps
work on the pigment itself as well a bit more (make it slightly less
uniformly colored).
