I think he's getting a bit better. Incorporated feedback from the last pic, making his head, eye and baubles bigger and putting a shadow in. Also tweaked his beak to make him look a bit smilier.
Really nice - I think the penguin is spot-on now, but something about the ornaments is a bit stiff? I think maybe they look too perfectly balanced? And whilst it is more difficult to do the star not straight on, I think it might look better if it were turned just a little bit. Or perhaps add a small design to the red bobble and make sure that is not perfectly in front?
Also not 100% sure that the shadows are right just yet – but that's my weak spot myself, so I might just be projecting my difficulties onto this.
Love the penguin, though. Really nicely done.
Again based on improvements suggested by lovely Dribbblers and those on Twitter. I think the main problem now is the shadow on the floor (see attached), without a proper reference photo, it doesn't seem to look right, he's still floating a little bit!

Are you sick of my penguins yet?
