seems to me like there is not much variation in the textures. Its looks like you only have about 5 different texture maps.

I agree with honestdom. Your textures are way too repetitive. Add some variation in there, and add in some kind of dirt/grease/grime to it. It looks way to clean. Maybe alittle bit of a glow to the 'slime'?
