Nice smoke effects. Fluids?

I would defintely work on the eyes a bit and i would also dirty up the texture make it more random

Not fluids, real smoke pictures composed in Photoshop, except the background sky that is made in Terragen ( a program to make landscapes).
I agree with you about the eyes, they need a little more work.

I have a doubt about what picture to choose, because i like the one with the black background but the other is more completed, so i dont know.

I would only add a backgroundimage if it complements the image.
So either stick with the black gradient thing or zoom out a bit and maybe show why there is smoke al around him so people understand why without reading any backstory.

I maybe have an idea for your eyes;
make the pupils vulcano like with smoke leaking out of his eyes
I would let him have smoke coming out of his mouth aswell maybe even his nose
i tried Photoshopping somethin to clarify but yet again by drawingskills are to meager to make something nice i hope it is clear though

Thank you for your interest.

The smoke is methane vapor, because he is in Titan, a moon of Saturn in wich there are seas and clouds of methane.(this is real, not fantasy).
The idea of making alien eyes is nice and I may try to see if I get something better.

I cant zoom out because what you see is all I have made of the model.
