Help with Non Metallic Shading

[Rosier]

I couldn't figure out how to make the subsurface scattering work, but I upped the contrast a bit, made it paler and added some purple splorches.

hmm, maybe try with a more purple color?

I would suggest trying to get the goose bumped flesh of the chicken incorporated.  I think it would look super cool if you did it in a super wide dithering type of way.  I like the design of the character though.  They look super cool.

I've made some (mostly) colour edits (ending up with the rightmost) with the help of the reference that was posted earlier. I don't really know anything about subsurface scattering either, but at least the creature looks less tasty now.
I can't really tell if it still looks like chicken/skin though.

Bluh, I was right in the middle of posting the new version when I saw yours, Bat.

I do like the more emphasis on purple, but I feel like it's a bit more white/pale than blue.  I got rid of any sort of normal human skin color and made it all purple or whitish.
In addition, I littered a few dots around that hopefully emulate goosebumps.  I couldn't get any decent dithering to work on this size, but that's probably because I've never really used it before.
