Welcome, Depends on what you want to do with it aestically. The bad news: ->The entire head does'nt resemble a humans head antomically...not very much. -> There is a lack of understanding how shading works, please pick a light source and shade from there, in my revision I have picked the upper right corner. Shade darks where the light source is being blocked, shade lighter where light is shining strongly on a certain area. Of course this can get much more complicated, but I'll keep it simple. -> The line art (outlines), is of poor quality. There are jagged unpolised edges all over the place - this is bad. Jagged edges come from 3 pixels uniting in a trifecta of doom that remsembles an 'L' with the top part chopped off. The good news: -> You didn't choose fully saturated colours, I.e: RED(255,0,0) Versus greyish-RED(140,60,60). Fully saturated colors will soon burn out the eyes of the viewers; We certainly don't want that :)  I've spent 7 minutes tweaking the head, the rest of up to you...You'll notice I've placed a lightbulb where the light source should be coming from. I'm not sure what the subject in the picture was, I assume it's a female pirate...sorry for making the revision look like a guy X_X Good luck |

I rather like the look. The lighting seems a bit off and should be fixed a bit. My big concern here is all those grey colors (zoom in). Are they placed pixel by pixel? If not, its not pixelart. If yes, why? Line lieart should really be cleaned up even with this funky style.
