Adding a little shading to the interior of the mouth might give it some depth. All the lighting is even at the moment and if the plant is eating some one, there would be a darkness inside the mouth.
..and yes, I live in Florida, and as beautiful as Orchids are.. they are a tad bit creepy... Great Job!

Thank you Ernest.
I was wondering... does an half eaten body bring opacity or darkness to a translucid plant when it slips down its throat? I have decided to listen to you as you live in Florida and therefore must have a great experience of this phenomenon. With the alligators there is no problem as their throat is already dark, but I must admit that I was quite puzzled with the orchid.
HOW FUN! You don't have to, but if you ran a soft burn brush under the edge of the dragon layer, it would give it some more depth (I'm a pest, I know). At the moment it's a bit flat (still fantastic), just a suggestion. Really is fun.
Thanks my Driven. Always a pleasure to follow your advice
Smooch
