The shading's a bit off. Even if the light source is coming from above, there's still shadows in between the feathers.

I think that using the black to sepparete the feathers, and to represetn the middle section are not a good idea.
Maybe you should use only shadows to indicate where the feathers are, and use different sizes, so we feel they are coming out of the same place.
I did a little attempt to show what I mean. :) If you like the idea, you should be more careful than I was when it comes to shapes and stuff, cuz what I did ended up looking slightly like ordinary hair :p
Hope it helps ^^

Some better examples:
   All three Monsters are from Final Fantasy VI
Very nice work so far. Keep it up :)
