Those cracks in the wings are a pretty good idea, however, I think they look a little bit too uniform. I think the cracks would look more realistic if they were dark (deep) along the edge, then getting lighter (less deep) as they near the center. Then again, it's been a while since I've seen cracked wood.
Another little thing that kinda bothers me are the eyes - they kinda look as if they are just glued on there, instead of being part of the object. Maybe some 'inset bevel' style shading around the eyes would fix that.
I like the comical look about the whole - it kinda reminds me of the Super Mario games for some reason (I think that reason is Yoshi - but yeah, I'm not sure).
Look'n good. And $dj-designs basically mentioned what I would have said .. but I sort of like the cracks the way they are. So to each his own as this is yours .. and looks sweet as is anyway.
I had actually thought about doing this but didn't want the cracks to be too obvious. I'm not sure why, but it just seemed like they should be there but hidden. Perhaps I should give your idea a thought again and see what it looks like with some depth though. Right now the cracks look a bit too simple I guess.
