I did it really quickly and i am crap with proportions. This is just to get a feel for what it'll look like. I want it to be short. I'm taking a bit of inspiration from the Warhammer miniatures and, as bad as it makes me feel, from the disney (Shudders) film Atlantis.

I am keeping this model low poly like mike suggested. I am starting by making a basic concept 3d model just to get a feel for what the final will be like. Ive made the head in a bout an hour.
