i dont think that adds enough to the piece, imo. if youre gonna add color you might aswell go all out, or atleast more than what you have there.
my edit really isnt much just me playing with colors really. :P

Not bad, but the purple sticks out like sore thumb on my monitor. I'll play around with a crazier palate soon. :)

it doesnt have to be crazy by any means, i just think why add just a dabb of color? its like greyscale on a tinted screen.

The lightest shade ont eh side of the face that kinda looks like a crack is really bugging me...I'm not sure if it serves any purpose, btu it just doesn;t blend well.

Oh, and I love the colors  :)

In terms of color, I was thinking more along the lines of...

The bird in the left is your version, except I decided to remove the AAing where his right arm was creating that shadow, as it looked a little strange(forgot to mention it in the last crit). Also, your green version of the bird looked great, except the strange reddish hue in the piece is really throwing it off atm. Oh, and sorry if I'm taking this editing a little too far. I'm also learning about as much as you are in this subject of choosing colors, so maybe I'll benefit from this piece also!...Great job...
my back hurts...

I wish I could dither like that. ATM, I'm still more of a spriter instead of pixel artist.:S
That said, great job. To ALL of you.;D
OT: I like these Holloween-themed emoticons, even if we never celebrate it where I'm from. They're so crazy. :D
"Baboy" is Filipino for pig.

I'm fairly happy with this coloration. I'd enjoy to call this finished sometime in the near future.  :)
