regardless of you wanting to just showcase something or not without receiving any criticism in mind, we still have the rights to give our input, especially considering the purpose of this board, as Iocus pointed out. We, as a whole, understand pixelart because of our long history dealing with them, and we think that with this experience, we can make your work process easier and thus, more enjoyable.
For example, wainting or not, you are now aware of hueshift and pixel clusters. You've been given info that could help you in the long run if you're ever interested on it.
It's not a problem if you want to use more colors than your usual sprite/pixelart. But what I mean with all this is that you don't need MORE colors to make the sprite MORE detailed. Of course, we aren't bound to harsh palette limitations anymore: but if we can do the same thing with 10 colors and still look detailed enough, why using 15? (this is just a rhetorical example, not that you are doing this) Personally less colors are easier to deal with. Less places to assign them, and therefore use the hues to its fullest. We don't like it without a reason, after all.
