Looking at the drawing I think the eyes should be somewhat lower. The grin already looks quite evil
 that's nice.I wonder how the modelling thing is going to work, how you would need to define the muscles in the face and such for the new emotion system.

I dont know on how the muscle system is going to work on creature models.
and it doesnt have any eyes, it is a nostrel (I know.. its a bit unclear)I am interested on what kinda texture maps I need to use. doom3 has 5 textures for thier models normal map bumpmap specular map transparancy map and the normal texture

Just what does a specular map do? I have a vague knowledge that it's somewhat like a shininess(or whatever it's called) map but with coloring information...

well, in 3DSMax it determines how light reactes with it to some extent. does it reflect or refract? dull or sharp? etc.

yeah.. its a greyscale map that determines the shininess of a surface. you can see this very clearly in the doom3 screenshots. everything that looks like wet blood is white on the specular map

nice!
wish i even could model a bit oh well  my advice would be to follow the somewhat big and vertical shape to do the body, and not make it have a vertical body, and try and make the nack as small as possible...i have an image of some creature with 4 legs, and the some fighting legs, streachable that is not touching the ground

give it a body like ifrit from the final fantasy series
 + a tail, and maybe have it walk on all fours but be able to stand on the hind legs for attacking etc.
