Well, this is super underrated... Had this in my likes but never commented. Glad it got a top pixel art award. Perhaps not so much traffic on PJ these couple years :(

Wow! This is stunning. Very well done.

Ridiculously absurd wondeful piece.  :)

I see, but yeah, either way, great piece. And really nice colour handling especially.

Astonishing 

No, it all reads well to me. I just wasn't sure if it was curiosity or disapproval or what. But astonishment makes sense.

@ParkerBaby: Maybe the mouth is not readable enough? (It's supposed to form an "o" for astonishment) I had the issue with a different monitor and the original resolution.

@ptoing: Thanks a lot! I posed myself for the right arm but couldn't see the elbow. But maybe I didn't get the angle 100% correct.

@Guffman the raw pixeling process was over the course of 4 weeks, maybe like 1-2 hours each day.  Sketches and everything else adds another week.

I don't know what the expression is meant to convey. 

Lovely piece. I feel like we should see some of the elbow of her right arm, but not quite sure. Lovely either way.

  Amazing! how long did drawing take?

Thanks for the comments!

@JerryPie: That's really nice to hear, I never knew! Thanks!

Only 31 colours!? Looks like 4x that much. Absolute mastery!

The first was one of my favorite pieces on the site for years. I was so excited to see this thumbnail! The full image did not disappoint. This is incredible

Amazing!!!

Masterful work!
Very tasteful.
