This is a self portrait of me wearing one of my favorite Threadless Tshirts - Dead Shred. This was the very first pixel art piece I ever did, and even though I can see a lot of mistakes now... I guess I still kind of like it. :)

You've got a few tricks of the trade to learn, but I think it's safe to expect some pixel awesomeness from you shortly! :)
You gave yourself a weird anatomy (unless...?): shoulders are too high, which gives a slumped look; the left (ours) arm points to a lower joint than the right. Knees look bent, possibly a side-effect of shading.
Mouth and nose look a bit dirty and might be simpler/lighter.
This is pretty damn good for a first try. I don't really see where all those colors went though. Looks like you have a lot of colors that are almost excatly the same.

And yes, all those colors. 16 should do!
