I agree, the blandness is very realistic technique that works the best with the metallic / wood areas. [How do you do those metallics!?!?! ;) ] In the blue robe, it really shows that you can highlight very well. I'd suggest put a little more detail into the tails; aka. make them a little more "fleshy" looking. Use a cleaner highlighting for those green areas and the jewelry; and maybe some discoloration in the nails, like there's dirt under them.
Hope this is helpful!

I took time to look at them since I got the same model on my desk, and I think it's underated.
The bland color scheme and very gritty style makes this one easily overlooked.
For better score ( Thus better exposure and better bids.), I suggest you try to comprimise between the ragged/gritty style ( which I like) and the more mainstream crisp/neat style by giving a few areas strong contrast and giving the mini an attractive focus point, which is lacking here.
