I had to add shades because I didnt want it to look bland. 10 colors isnt that bad anyway for a big piece... I mean look at your avatar, which has 9 colors but looks like only 3. :-/

"more interesting with the color restrictions and all"
Still using 10 colors for b/w piece? Uh oh.
Pretty nice picture but... well... I guess you could do better.

I agree about both the chee and greek omments. Ithe facial look reminds me a little of samurai jack. My fav part is the hair looks like the hill of nightmare before xmas. cool tho.
This is just, excellent. My favourite part would have to be the neck hair, it just draws me to like it lol. And I agree with Joseph, the shadow seems a bit to crisp with the current shading on the cheek.

The style alone's enough to earn my love. The technical proficiency is just extra tasty candy
i was confused by the preview, thought the nose was an ear and that the picture was a cartoon dog ^^
i like this a lot, it makes me think of greek stuff in a way

@degital, I often ask that question of certain things shown here. You have given such a proper reply that I will never find a need to do so again.

very cool design. really interesting concept here. i'd love to see more like this. two small crits though-forehead line above eyebrow doesnt have any shading and then the cheek bone shadow looks too crisp.
Indeed vector would be all the same, but I find the creation of a pixel art piece more interesting with the color restrictions and all. Plus, I'm no good at vector...

I love B/W pixelarts. This has a great design to it, so its nice. I do always find this type of thing meanigless in pixelart since a vector version would appear the same to the non-pixel fans.
