looks pretty good  but I feel sorry for the turtle 

The shell looks very flat.  I would add some extra shadows, and where the profile edge is I'd show the large bumps there.
The black and white eye on the turtle really stands out.  Don't use pure black and pure white, they rarely exist in real life.

i feel asthough the first stage is much better than the laters... has a lot more character and looks better.

also that shell looks bad. you need darker tones, and bolder segments on the shell.
