A fearsome ghoul sprite... I hope. Used a posing model as a reference. Any thoughts or suggestions on how to improve this?

I would play with that green ramp to include some grey or other neutral. Anatomically the crotch seems wrong, there should be no thigh under the bulge me thinks.

yup. I would suggest that you ignore the figure altogether for now and concentrate a bit on colors. Just look at the color palette 12345678 1 + 2 run together 5 + 6 run together also I think adding 1 shade to serve as the tier shade say 2 + 5 would not change much yet with one less color you can then add a deeper red so that its right eye can be darker than its right eye.
If that makes no sense then just explore colors more. Delete, diversify, experiment.
ps: Is this iso? If so its right eye needs to be 1px higher.

Let's do one more here...
No, it wasn't meant to be isometric, though it does sort of look that way.
