aww. great for a first ever. the outside lines must be shaded and less thick though. sorry for criticism, but if i made you think of these things, i thought that you would excel in future spriting.
The outline is all black, it should be coloured. It should also be 1 pixel wide.
The shading is broken.Use a minimun of three shades, in the curves and where the light doesn't hit.The outline is also a bit shaky.
With alot of pratice, You will improve. Keep tryin'
Well for your first it is kinda bad!Well you need to add more shading on the hat thing and then you might want to make it bigger. I didn't like the size.
