Awesome! It looks weird, but also inspirating. 
a fav.
Well, squatting is probably a better word. She's bipedal, so I think her knees would be pointing forward like in a human, but she has huge feet like a frog. Something like this, but I think she needs skinnier legs to match the arms. I haven't really thought much about how she's supposed to move with those legs in a dress. Hopping, maybe. I'll have to give animating her a go.
Also, I didn't mention before, I love the mushrooms! They look great without standing out to much. Great job on those!
Wow, thanks a lot, guys! Really glad to hear you like it. 
I didn't really decide to draw anything creepy. It almost seems to be my default mode of thinking.
PaoloVictor - I don't think I got the shape of the sleeve quite right. It should be more apparent that it's narrower at the shoulder. It might be shaped like that because of the way I built up her shoulder or because the sleeves of this shirt is lopsided.
tomic - I agree. I experimented a bit with blue on the mushrooms, but I was also using that for the leaves in the background and wanted them to be on a different level colorwise and not take too much attention away from Sal. I ended up brightening the light blue instead. I was also going for more contrast on the dress initially with the bright highlights, but that was before I had decided what type of fabric to go for. I considered using more black, but her arms are also black and easily obscured because of their size, so I wasn't sure how to pull that off.
iLKke - I was going for a skeletal body, but she's pretty small and I found that cloth is surprisingly rigid. I imagined her to have froglike legs, so she's sitting, and I think her knees would prevent the cloth from sinking down too much. I used a lamp shade, a sock and some pencil cases to build up her body. I imagined her legs to be froglike, so she's sitting with her knees bent, but I couldn't really get them to protrude much with the conical form of the dress. The curved back is a great idea, though, and I'll see if I can find time to edit it in. 
Nice work, I like it how I could immediately tell from the thumb that it was you.
I haven't seen the thread on pxl (am I a rebel or what?) so I might just be repeating something that's already been said. I think the high-contrasted neck part is the most successful. You've rendered the other parts nicely but they don't really do your awesome style justice, IMO. Furthermore, I don't know what kind of physique is hidden under the cloth, but judging by the insect-like arms, I believe a cloth that hangs more like on a skeleton would work better. Then again, I presume that you always want to get the creepy effect, and that might just not be true :)
From a creature-design standpoint, I like the bits protruding from the back, but I think they'd work better if the back were more curved.
only one think: is that creature have nose
i've seen this on pixelation (tm)
turned out great, i'm especially diggin' the shiny drops on the eyeball, yummy! dunno about his cape and the shrooms though, lack of contrast there
My only gripe is with his left sleeve, it has a strange "bell" shape.
