The dino looks liable to fall on its face, but otherwise great modelling. The
texture looks strange around the thighs, is that the problem of mapping or the
image map? As Josh said, the skin looks a bit too slimy, more amphibian than
reptilian.
Also, perhaps you should increase focal depth a bit or shift the focal point,
the head looks too blurry IMO.

He looks good.  The water's good too.  

Someone posted a texture up in one of the tori threads above
that would look really good on the Dino, in fact I was dissapointed
that you hadn't used that as I'd like to see it in a scene.

Maybe it had been splashing about before someone said "cheese!".
A lot of mass in the hind quarters and tail so maybe not too imbalanced,
plus the toes are forward.
I don't see the texture trouble myself.

I agree with that, focus on the eye position would have probably been best
imo.
Good to see you're doing more modeling and raytracing Mike.  Gee, that
sounds like I don't see much of you're stuff anymore.

Granted, the pattern one the back does look like it's something hanging on the
back.  I was a little rushed applying the texturing.  The bright colors were
intentional though - trying for something different, as no one really knows what
dinosaurs looked like.

Yes, it's wading through the water.  That's why I added those ripples to the
water radiating from where the feet are placed (spherical normal).  Margus is
right about some of the texturing.  I applied the textures rather quickly, so
they stretch in a few areas.  This is not related to the uv mapping.

Well, you haven't.  I got lots of stuff in the works though. :)

If the graininess is not intentional, you should use 'variance 0' for the
focal blur.
  Or the post-processed focal blur (faster but doesn't work for reflections
etc).
