Sorry if I didn't reply to this ASAP, I had things to do. D:
Anyways, let's start!

First thing first that I noticed, way too many colors.

If I was WreX, I'd say it's fine.

You multiple colors for red and gray, and having a 'lighting/after effect' sort of thing going on when there's nothing to reflect upon but the lighting. I would somewhat understand for when the fire is coming out the chimney, but because this is idle, then it shouldn't have that.
Also, why are the perspectives off? The front view is up Graal view then the others aren't anymore. It looks like it wants to be the same view, but it's more to the front view. Perspective is important!

So I will edit the front view and I hope you have an understanding to do with the others.


So I made the chimney, not complete yet - Tricky

But what I want to show first is the colors. Google reference if you must. Play around with them, at first I made the red too light, so I gave it more saturation. Then it was simply too red, so I called Google.
Me: Yo, gimme color reference.
Google: Lol for sure fam, dank memes coming up.
Google:


Use references! Perfect to help! Unless you're a god.

Now I wasn't so sure about the top part of the chimney and I even tried to Google it but Google didn't pick up the phone, so I had to draw based by my poor logic.
Because Tricky was too slow at helping me (EDIT: She helped me with perspective), I stumbled upon an image that might be helpful. Despite the wrong angle, it was at the correct view.


With that image, I got an idea and came up with two different colors (red and gray with the same model depending on your taste.

Did you see how the shading is clean and not too complex?
Also, because I made a color ramp, I didn't use them all for the second model.

I noticed something for your side view which affects the front view.


If your front view is flat then you side view corresponds to it. If your side view differs, then you're doing something wrong. If you want what you did on your side view then you'd create a crest on the front view.

This is the crest you'd follow:



Is what it should be like. I was lazee so I copy + paste. c:
Not sure what the white stuff is, but am assuming it's snow? And the green are leaves?
Well, from what I saw, your colors have a minuscule gap in value for each shade, which is bad, because that wouldn't be visible. Also, snow is a blue-hue color, so don't make it completely gray.


There you have it! So, because there's different types of snow, so it all depends on what you want to do with it and how you want to form it. Also for the leaves I made them a bit light as if it seems it's under the sea-or-so, so you can change the saturation and value.



I hope this helps!
