It's cute and simple. Shadow is well done. Nothing much to say, but good job and that kind of thing.

Thanks for your comments and advice, that's really helpfull.

I see what you mean with regard to the solid black outline, I'll take this on board for my next pixel.

I don't think it's bad at all. Besides being a bit plain I think you avoided a lot of beginner mistakes. I like the light on its face. The way the outline color changes from solid black to other colors depending on what's being outlined and where is also very good.

I would still suggest not using solid black though because it tends to flatten things and other dark colors can add so much more depth to a drawing. It also looks like there's a second very dark color used at the bottom of the outer outline, but my eyes can't tell the difference between that and the black unless I zoom in very close. Instead of black, try just using that dark color for the currently black parts of the outline.
