Nice job. My only suggestion would be next time don't make it so symmetrical. Put you main 'object' (in this case your turtle) at more of an angle, not quite centered. It will move the beholders eye around the whole piece and add interest.

45 the corners on the base so you do not see the ends like that, if you want.  or if you are happy with it then great
