Great start on the textures...
Not sure if you have tme but a few suggestions.
1) make the color in the eye a lot brighter. This will help give him a bit more life/soul.
2) In photoshop lighten up parts of the bump on the nose, face as well as his lower legs and tail. This will give his skin a bit more realizm like real animals. Also if you have time ramdomize the shapes/scales of the skin a bit=)
Im sure you cursing me hehe
Again great character.. looking forward to the final=)
