Looks great nice modeling and fast progress Vlad. Some Z-brushing and this lizard will look photo-real in no time.

Yeah, great modelling vlad. It looks excellent.

The only area that i am not sure about is the corner of the mouth. Your model looks like the first few reference photos that you posted, but in the third, greenish photo it looks as though there is a gap at the corner of the mouth that the bottom lip sort of disappears into. It may just be me, as no one else seems to have mentioned it.

Great work vlad and thanks for all the helpful advice that you have posted so far.
