Yeah, a few people already told me that, so I think I know that by now.

Well, I used some older characters that most people wouldn't really recognize. I used glover, because I didn't have any other idea for hands, except for Glover, which is one of my favorite games, so I used him.

I only used a lot of colors because I used characters that had red, green, blue, white, grey, and yellow, with shading for each, which makes a lot of colors, plus the gold on the body which uses a lot to make it look gold.  I don't think I overshaded, I think I just choosed parts of characters that created one very colorful character. If I only used 2 or 3 characters, I know I'd have less than 36 colors, but I used 7 different characters.  I could have worked better on the light source if I was told about this cotnest earlier. I started this sprite on the last day for it, so I rushed it, and I think it turned out nice  for a rushed pixel art.

Well, I saved it as PNG, I just shaded it a lot to make it look better, like the body, it took a lot of shades for it to look like that.

Well I didn't know shades counted as colors.  Why is there a color limitation anyway? I'm pretty sure I've seen some submitions with more than 36 colors too you know.. I only sprite for fun, not to win, so it doesn't really matter if I get disqualified by shading my sprite to make it look better, I'm just happy I made a sprite like this.

Hmm, well I don't see any pillow shading except from the feathers from the wings.

Alright alright, I removed the text, now can I have your opinions on my character?

Well, I added the text because most people might not know what video game characters I used. I didn't think the text had to be made by me, because I thought it didn't matter.
