As I started this I underestimated the time it was going to take. I was aware that each pixel will have a 20 second limit timer due to how comments work, but I didn't expect the image I was copying to take this long.
I ended up asking my friend @strawhat for help with the coloring in the end and also logged onto an alt account of mine to double the pace. This is how it turned out in the end, my "Mew" mascot image that I use in many places, it can be found here on Steempixels.com.
If you're going to create something of your own, I highly advice you to do it with a couple friends or a few alt accounts at the same time. Have fun!
