Looks good!
My only feedback would be that it uses a lot of fine color gradients. Kind of gives it a look of a VGA PC game, like DOOM or something where they had many more colors to play with. Not as much SNES or NES where they had much fewer color registers to play with. That's not meant as a complaint or criticism, just an observation really.
Since you mention you're just starting out, it might be a useful exercise to take this guy and re-color him using the DB32 palette: http://pixeljoint.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=16247
That's a real well optimized palette for doing lower color stuff if your interested in that sort of thing.
Thanks! I'll try it! Could you recommend any beginner tutorials?
If you look back on barts blog on the main page kinda at the lower center you will find some tutorials on pixel art he did. You may want to look for that.
oh, and also, I commend your choice of subject for your first pixel art. :)
DUDE This is so good!! It looks professional.
