Cool shapes. The morning star gets a bit hard to read. The spikes have too much going on IMO to be so uniform and numerous. As for his body, I like the direction you are headed in dialing the blockiness down however I might start going back to pushing the shapes to be more interesting. :) ganbatte!
I'll keep working on it for sure. Maybe it would be better to make the spikes less ornate, remove a few, and scale them up. I could probably paint in details on a more empty surface too. Thanks for the feedback! I'll continue to tweak it. I think I'm going to default back to my earlier design with less spikes as a whole…
