Visual aids would help immensely in helping you get your point across.
But otherwise here's my thoughts:
I presume your working at 45 degrees angle, 90 degrees is top down. Usually people work at 2/3 or 3/4 angle, or in other words, 66 degrees and whatever is 3/4ths of 90. Just a clarification.
In terms of making the walls not seem flat, colors help a lot. Make sure that the color of walls is never the same hue/value/saturation of the ground. Add a slight 2 or 3 tone gradient, so at the base of the walls it's darker.
As for the details of the sprites, it's hard to understand what you mean. =] Here's where visual aids would help a lot.
