Yeah that's true, I used a lot of colors on this, but just because i didn't care about the color number, or else I could have used a looot less. You know, This piece is done like I used in the old day, just with better pallette/shape, and in that days i used to use a different ramp for each tone, so that's why it is so full of colors.

Really cute little piece.  And I totally agree with you about how relaxing it is to have total control over the pixels. 

I do think that you could have used way fewer colors for this, though.  I wouldn't have noticed you used so many if I hadn't zoomed in on it.

 The shadow is there because it's slightly red and majes the green shirt pop out

 ahhh this is so cute and simple!

me agrada ..pero yo pienso que falta la sombra que va del personaje a la toalla
