Read up about pixel art shading and practise it if you really want to improve. Learn what pillow shading and banding is and try to avoid doing it. Hi JustinGameDesign
It is sweat.So they're actually there. Thanks for the comment ! ^^
Are the white pixels outside the face an accident or are they deliberately there?
I would remove the white pixels. Also, while the rest isn't bad, the mouth could use some work, there's no depth to it.
