So I can't decide witch of my shading styles is better. one of my shading styles is kind of realistic but when I use it I feel like I lose the whimsical effect that all good skins have, heres an example of that shading style:http://www.planetminecraft.com/skin/pajamas-my-first-skin-on-pmc/

My other skin has that whimsical effect but it looks too blocky, I know its minecraft everything is made of blocks, but still good skins transform the shapes to make it look realistic. Example of that shading style:http://www.planetminecraft.com/skin/the-soldier-of-the-sands/
Witch shading style should I use?
