Hello, i'm new to pixel art and still learning. I am trying to draw a pixel art medieval well and this is my progress so far:



I am quite happy with the bottom part (the rocks), but if you see something bad let me know. I cannot say the same for the top part - the wooden cover. I have hard time making it to look like a wood. I don't know if it is the palette problem or form, i suppose both. The thing is, the parts like wooden handle or the poles and the roof parts are really small and i can't get them look like wood.

Some additional info:
- The light source is 'behind left shoulder', like in Secret of Mana or othe jRPG.
- The palette for the bottom part is inspired by neutral colors from Adarias
- I don't mind having the colors a bit more saturated on the wooden part (again Secret of Mana 3 as example).

Thanks in advance for feedback and tips.
