Does anyone like it?
I downloaded the model of a sort of doom-like <goblin?>
Just added some basic fire and made some sucky mats, but was wondering what advice you guys might have for me?
EDIT: Aack, sorry I didn't realise how large that picture was.
Sorry!

Im adding lighting, and I'm making fire come out of the eyes, added horns.
Will update picture in a moment.
P.S. How should I post the picture? I don't have my own website, so I can't post one like that. Can I make it available for download?
EDIT***: I'm using a tutorial on making a 'ring of fire', but whenever I render it the fire particles are just black. I have been trying to tweak it and see what makes it visible, but nothing changes.
Any ideas?
