    colors should be fixed to more realistic looking colors those one are very neon looking i see allot of jaggies the outline need to be fixed basicly you draw your outline then delete jaggie parts and make the outline good then color it and shade the inside

    This^

    i think that what helped me the most with choosing nice colors for my pixel art is knowing the color wheel. I am not a pro, but I have found my own ways of getting better along side what people around here have told me.

    It will be kind of hard at the beginning, specially because learning perspective in pixel art is incredibly difficult, even more than traditional art (or at least in my own experience). But everything goes back into the usage of colors because to get the right perspective and a somewhat 3D shape you need to add shade and lighting (which your hat has basically none).

    Also refrain from using saturated colors, use more neutral colors (you can achieve this by adding either white or black to the color you're using.

    It may sound all difficult but with practice you'll get a lot better and you will get used to stuff and develop your own style I am still learning so I feel the struggle lol.
