I think that you should personalize the shape a little more. It's great, but it would be better if it had a more irregular set of teeth.

KUTGW! Cheers!

yes, MR, Final Gather, with an HDR image. There is a spot light with specular only (no diffuse), and a directional light for the shadows.

Raytrace. As to setting up your FG with HDR, I would suggest checking out one of the many tutorials you can find online about hdr and FG. This is some pretty basic stuff that we all had to read through.
