The Pixel Chapter: Arbacyk

I decided to start pixeling, mainly because I wanted to create a whole "dot box" series of the VOCALOIDs. I told @Alphabet I would do it when my computer was back up and I did, she thought I wasn't series about learning how (I really need the pixel forum you linked me to, by the way. T_T). Anyway, these are the dot boxes. I DID NOT MAKE THESE.

This is the one I'm currently working on, I really need some help on telling me what looks right and what doesn't. This took me 4 hours, please be honest (even if you have to be brutal), if you aren't honest I'll never improve. Remember, I'm trying to get it to resemble the ones above, if you think it's missing some "pizzazz" make sure to tell me, please! The original creators most recent work is IA, the girl with the cream hair and pink skirt.

Okay, I edited a bit, I think I'm completely done with the hair.

Edit: Here is her with her new hat, a ribbon, and some highlights to her hair.

You should learn how to color ramp and AA. If you use gradients, I will keel you. I also know several other tuts if you need it.

Anything you could link would be amazing help. Also, here are the 3 I've completed, note that they have been updated. And no, I did not use gradients though I did use AA(?) to blend the rainbow hair a bit better, I know it wasn't dithering though...
