1. You automatically got me with that orange-ish brown and teal. I love those colors together way too much- Also.. It's a cool creature. It's interesting to look at and the patterns are fun. I will say, I feel like it's missing something. And there isn't enough teal- In my opinion. 2. This design is boring, but the pose saves you. It gives them character and personality. The green eyes looks good with the colors, but maybe try different patterns? I don't know how realistic you're going for, but I'm a very visual-focused designer so.. Yeah.
