One technical comment about tentacle donkey - his back legs look pretty flat or crossed, as if they were on the same plane. If you pushed one leg back, matching the perspective of the front legs, it'll make him seem a lot more stable.
Also - don't be afraid to push shadows. Here's a quick block in of shadows with my mouse -
You want your light to fall on the bright parts first - right now, your reflected light is almost as bright as your key light. I normally use levels, a gradient map, or threshold (in PS) to check how my light is falling and how it effects my piece. Strong shadow shapes really help push realism.
