Looks pretty good.
I'm not a fan of the feet and hands being quite that tiny because the style here seems to be proportionate with extremity ends exaggerated so the hands and feet should follow that tho not a lot just enough to balance itself.

the curve in the right seems strange and I feel that those outline inside don't work much.
Edit: I din't notice that it's your fist post here.
Welcome to PJ!

Little Edit. I used the same number of colors, so It's not too clear here and there. If you don't use a color restriction, I'd add some colors.

Ah, I understand. I fairly like it. but I was wondering what was that brown thing around the neck and trough that it was a mantle....
Do you plan to put there a sword/shield? Any knight need one.   
EDIT: forgot about colors.
If you need some help, search in the support forum, there are the "colors topic" and "noob tutorials" with many tutorials.
ANd if haven't, read cure's tutorial there.

A shield and a lance/javalin will eventually be put on him.

I made some more edits.



i liked your cape so i tried my hand at it also your feather on top of his head an really nice so i put a tassel on top of his head not the top left area of the sprite looks less empty.

You did a hell of a job on the metal coloring there. Getting metal to look right in pixel art takes some legit skill. Kudos!

Update. Turning out great C+C would be great.
The Legs and belt shading have been removed until i can think of some way to better represent it.

Ha, I replied to your wayofthepixel post, but I just continue here. I overpainted your knight a little more and made an arch nemesis for him.
