Hey, I'm new here!

I've been doing pixel art for ~5 years now (well, more like pixel doodling), and over the past year I've been getting way more into it.

Anyway, just to start things off, here's a little thing I did about a month ago. I'd say it's a pretty accurate representation of how my style has been going lately. I am focusing on learning/improving and such so I really don't mind criticism.

Side-note: I wasn't sure if I should make the background transparent since when I made this, I liked the idea of the darkness blending into the shirt, and so, making it the same color. ...I don't know if that makes any sense. :p
