nice

this is so pleasant to look at ! (: good job on challenging yourself ~

I love using colors too!  It's an interesting improvisation when you use colors that you're not even sure if they will turn out.  And then it's such a pleasant surprise when they do!  

You did so good with this and, even though you used only a few "raw" colors, you made it look like you used a ton.  That's a good sign of a great pixel artist when you can make what is simple look complicated, but not cluttered.  Great job!
