Pretty cool. I like the model and textures, but there are a couple of things I think are keeping it from being really awesome. First and foremost, the lighting could be a lot more exciting. Lighting for horror monsters should be a lot more dramatic, higher contrast, and with some interesting rim light, side light or bottom light. Turning down the roughness could help too. The gooy bits being a little glossier will look great with rim light.

Second, I think your skull could use some more texture breakup. It's a bit too uniform and the bump a little too strong. It reads more like stucco or canvas right now. Smoother areas would help. 


I know you want to be done with this piece, but you are so close to it becoming really awesome.

that makes a lot a sense! I might rest my eyes from it a moment and come back to it with what you've said in mind, thanks so much!
