Seconding MysteryMeat. With art this small, you're inherently simplifying and distorting things just to make them work at this size, which isn't great for learning anatomy. You should give yourself enough resolution/space that you can express everything as you see it, without forced stylization. That way, you'll learn anatomy rather than a version of it distorted in ways you weren't even aware of, and when you apply your anatomy knowledge to pixel art, you will consciously make the stylization decisions. Your art will look better for it.

I'm using Aseprite, I've found somewhere a free old version, so I'm using it.

Try to focus on the lightning, where is the source of light.



On the left I did my version, and on the right I tried to modyfie your version, by shading your colors (I'm not good with asymmetric style



Try to experiment with many colors, try to draw some items using the pictures of the real ones.

Oh and also great job with this box The point is to open your creativity.

So, i tried to do my version of your crate, idk if it was good, but here it is:

What I mean was that take a piece of paper, and start drawing using pencil or what ever you have. It will help you draw in pixel art if we talk about big resolutions.

If you are intrested in anatomy then find some tutorials (first try it out in a piece of paper, then you can transfare it into pixel art)
