Well...
This all started a while ago, when I was bored and wanted to try my hand at pixel art. Haha, but of course I can't draw very well (people will say otherwise, but...) and especially not with a mouse, and furthermore, a pixelly pencil tool.
So, I thought like a vector-tracer-person (which I sort of am. You know.) and decided, aha! Take an image, trace it pixel by pixel, make a pixel art piece, huzzah.
So...I did. XD
Of course, I shrunk it to about 1/8th it's original size, so it was actually nice and pixel art size. Hoho.

Anyway, the process stopped ages back. But since, you know, I haven't vectored anything and my CGing is going to be a day or two more at the least, I decided to show you this. I mean, otherwise only one other person but me would have seen it (as is the case with a fair few things really).
I just spent a short while tweaking it (20 mins, tops. Just playing with colors and positioning the colour palette. Nothing much changed from then to now)

DETAILS:
Size: 100x75 pixels
Colours: 38 on the palette, 32 of which were used.
Time taken: A few hours.

Tools: Photoshop CS2, MS paint. (prior for main work, latter for tweaks.)

Thanks for looking. I'll be back soon with something much more better than this, promise. ^o^
