One thing though: Jaggies. Don't know if you've heard of them, but they're the bane of outlines. Basically, a line like this makes me cringe:



The point is that the outline generally shouldn't be more than one pixel thick, and as you can see, it is 2 pixels right where it "jumps" to the next pixel. Remove those mean extra pixels, and you get a much smoother outline.



Eh wot? Also, the easter egg looks really nice, but i see one problem that isn't about jaggies: It has 1191 separate colors. I have an extremely hard time believing you hand picked all of those. I'm all for smoothness, but the point of pixel art is lost the moment you start using soft brushes, because the machine is doing the smoothing for you. As soon as the machine is doing something you couldn't replicate easily (i.e. smoothing, it's very obvious when it's man-made), it's not pixel art.

That said though, props on using free-hand for outlines to begin with. Most beginning pixeldudes tend to make things consisting entirely of up/down/left/right lines. While understandable (it's a gagillion times easier), it's also not very pretty.

Also, be careful with the line tool; it's really nice for making long, straight lines, but if you don't stick to "nice" angles (1/1, 1/2, 1/3...), it can mess up horribly. Mostly when it's really close to being perfectly diagonal, in which case you should just go wholly diagonal. Those little bumps on the line aren't pretty.

TL;DR: the outlines are jaggy, but otherwise pretty nice. c:
