Bumomap. Bumpmap makes not just simple round head but it make with some bumps. You need cellshading on for bumpmap. Try cellshading on wih bumpmap on and bumpmap off. I think you will see difrences on textures.
Do you have shaders? (This might require shaders - not sure?)
Err.. flames are.. flames. Their like motion trails but flames from your hands, feet and head, right?
