alright - so this bandana is getting there... sure the normal map based on my high res isn't great, but it was a first attempt all around - only problem left to solve is dumbing down the glow quite a bit (it looks like a phong material has been applied to it), and then I need to play up the texture a bit, and dumb down the green because the texture really doesn't look like I had envisioned it. Also for some reason the texture will not load on the back tail things that stick out the back of the bandana. not quite sure how to fix this - but if I find out what the problem is, then maybe I can avoid it next time.

that said - the bottle is even closer to being on it's way.
