Year of the Dragon (3) - - A Happy Accident?

So I've stitched the last of my Dragons (thankfully) and with this one I couldn't decide if what turned out was a happy accident or a terrible disaster.  I had stitched all the flesh including the legs before I stitched the body.  I just wanted to be done with that color because I'm getting tired of it (7 more to go Whoo hoo!).  I did the pink belly part and those confetti stitches, but I decided to do the confetti color in the surrounding area before I did the bigger block of color. 

Unfortunately I must have gotten interrupted between looking at the pattern, deciding what to do next and pulling the corresponding color.  What I pulled was the color for the big section . . . which I ended up using for the confetti stitches.  I didn't realized my mistake until I finished and went to grab the color of the bigger section and realized that was the color I had just used. 

So . . . the orange main color should be small confetti stitches around the lower body, the muzzle outlines and around the eyes in the headdress.  The dark red/coral color should have been the main body color (which I did in orange) instead of the single confetti stitches.  Once I made the mistake in the lower half I had to leave myself a note on the pattern to switch them up on the headdress.  You can go look at a previous one to compare.

On one hand I think it looks great.  I think it gives more definition to the headdress but the pink belly next to an orange body (which should be dark coral) looks a little off.  I have a couple other characters that are going to the same family group so I've decided to change the colors up a little bit so everyone's not the same and for those it will be easy.  I have 2 dragons going to my sister and niece but I couldn't figure out how to change the colors without it being a disaster.  So maybe I got lucky.  I wasn't going to mess with the Snake's colors either but now maybe I can work something out.  What do you think?
