There are no ugly colours, only ugly combinations of colours.

The face is so smooth, it looks really nice.  Even without AA it looks almost vector.  And the colors do match the mood quite well, too.

I don't know.  The moon light on the 1st one looks just right.  The updated one seems too bright.  Both are awesome nonetheless.

Looks better, although I can't see any major updates.  Does the C64 have a certain palette or how does it work?

Love the style in this image. Reminds me of the game: Clue!

Some of the shading doesn't seem consistent, but if you are still working on, it looks really good so far!
