A stormy boat artwork I made (would love feed)

Hi, I’m a beginner to pixel art and I made this boat shooting out of the water on new years eve, I really like it, and I’m hoping I can get some criticism so I can improve more art in the future. any tips?

Sketch the outlines after drawing the shapes first so you can more accurately show the 3D shapes. A little more knowledge on how boats look in 3D space would be helpful so a reference would be prudent!

Also, try to avoid solid black until you are sure you want there to be no detail in an area…

ok thanks! ill note your advice
