Yea something happened when I indexed the color in PS it added a ton of extra colors originally the peice was only a few colors...have to fix that :D

Good start, welcome!

Nice sprite; only problem is the outlines contrast; they're far too bright on the skin compared to other parts.

That, and too many colors! Try 16 ;)

 I didn't like this arm, but i like the hair. 

EDIT
