Not so bad thus far but you're going to need some texturizing. I suggest reference photos. Look at the texture of the orange as well as the vine (it's a bit bigger than that I believe.

But you're off to a good start thus far!

Indeed, a good job!
The only thing I see now is the shape of the leaf which is not as 3D as the shape of the orange itself. Work the shapes and lighting before proceeding.

I retouch some pixels, but now I´m fighting with the texture.

You're trying hard with the texture, but I think you're taking the wrong approach.

Here is a good demonstration of a pixelated orange.



Here's a good reference picture. You did start off well with the points but those points are more shadows than highlights.
