Koopa - Project Soy, Yes, I now have a name, I guess.

To follow up with the Goomba, I'm trying to now create a Koopa.
I'll be working on the body and arms and legs separately. Anyways, Here's what I got so far.



The shell and head are imcomplete, but the body shading is pretty much done.

C&C please? I'm looking for opinions on the shape of the head, as it looks strange to me and I can't seem to get it right.

UPDATE2:

Not bad at all. Add some more constrast and make the shell slightly larger.

Body contrast or Head contrast? If it's the head, I'm waiting to get the shape right. If it's the body, that's easily fixable.

Thanks for the input

Both could use more contrast. Maybe some hue-shifting too, but that's optional.

Update:
I gave it full shading, and fixed up the beak and neck a little bit. The head still looks a bit iffy to me, but if most people think it's ok, I'll leave it.

cute <3
umh.. Its cool!
good work.

I just figured out why the head looks weird! The beak was suppose to overlap the eye. Yay!

I'll show after I post my next update.

@404: Thanks. I don't care whether it's cool or cute to you. Just as long as it looks decent.

EDIT: I hate how the old one looked ugly so I'll just post the fixed version now:


EDIT2: Made a walking animation. Next update will actually have arms. :P

EDIT3: I've includes arms. Next will be just the shell itself.
