I totally suck at GIMP, but maybe this helps: If you draw the shadows on an new layer, try making that layer a bit "transparent" (this may be called layer transparency or opacity or something similar).
Concerning the shapes / lines, I actually think you did a great job, except maybe for the line to the right on the arm (the one that looks like a fork). That seems more out of place / not following the arm. Still cool stuff, nice idea!
