looks pretty good, kinda reminds me of some sort of an underwater creature for some reason.... I think it needs more in the way of wrinkles and general definition. It's got a good basic shape so now you need to tweak it and make it really cool

Reminds me of that alien from Enemy Mine.

I like you're alien (and the face shape does kinda look like the alien from enemy mine!). This is the UV tutorial that taught most of us around SimplyMaya.
