This is a work in progress for a fun pixel art that I have so far dubbed, "Balloon Hangers"

I got the idea for the clouds from the Kirby series, but the rest is completely original. I think it looks OK, but I cant get the shading right on the creatures and less so, the balloons. the light source is in the upper left-ish corner-ish.

Any way I can make the creatures/baloons better shaded/more realistic shaded/texured-ish? Any tips related to, or unrelated to the shading, are appreciated.

The creatures don't really look like they're handing on to each other, just sort of slapped together. Show the grasp in a little more detail to convince us of their weight: because the one at the top is gonna be holding onto that balloon for dear life it he's got two or three other little guys hanging onto him. It'll be more comical if there is a bit more struggle (sounds awful, but you know what I mean).
