Thanks!

Oh- oops. It's actually a screengrab from an HTML5 canvas, the little characters are all draggable with physics, so they don't always stack well. I've cleaned it up a bit, but forgot about that.

 In hindsight I realize this might not have been the best piece to introduce myself here on Pixeljoint.

I know that pixel art has a lot of traditions that alot of people take good care of, and I respect- and adhere to said traditions. This piece of pixel art is in fact 100% hand-made with the exception of a few circles made with the circle tool in Photoshop. Honestly, this would look a lot different if I made it with vector tools. To me the process with hand-pixeling something is the most important aspect, it takes me in a very unique direction. 

But I must say, I do enjoy the pic without the AA, I really like how it looks all in it's rough-edged glory. I chose to go with all the AA because I've never tried it before and am quite content with how it turned out. Also, I love large pixel art. 

Furthermore, thank you for the kind words! :)
Here is the picture without any AA, and the sketch

PS: It's not really that impressive that it's "just" 16 colors here? If you count the palette w/o AA I'm using 6 colors total. That's 10 extra colors for the AA. ;) (or is it impressive? I have no idea)
