This is probably my last tweak. I should move on to better things, hehe. Cleaned the chin, added a few more body and clothing details, changed the palette a bit.
Almost forgot, thanks a bunch to r1k and your crits. =)
I still think you could darker the outlines on the skin a bit, I did an edit to show you

but its looking better now
Thanks for the tip. Tweaked the skin tone, changed the black on the skirt/boots to a dark red. I also added another tint of red to AA the shoes a bit. Used the skirt colors for the headband as well. 4 reds, 3 skin tones, 3 blues, black, and transparency for a total of 12 colors.
looks better now. I think theres a problem with the inconsitancy of the outlines. I mean, the skirt and boots have black outlines, but the skin has very light outlines, which makes the arms kind of hard to see on light backgrounds (like the pj default background). Id suggest trying a darker outline on the skin (which doesnt have to be a brown/orange either) and a slightly lighter outline on the skirt/boots.
Yeah, I hear ya. It's just that on darker backgrounds the outlines don't look quite right so I thought of capping them with a border. You guys are right. Keep it simple, keep it clean.
*revision1: removed black borders around characters*
personally, I think all those outlines you put around them are ruining what would otherwise look nice.
Nice work.
