this is just a fail attempt at trying to sprite 3d

Do you have any idea how stupid that sounds?
Every sprite is 2D, a lot of them fake 3D or are renders of 3D models. You can't sprite 3D, because you draw on a 2D plane (or it's rendered as a 2D image). Saying you fail at spriting 3D is a meaningless excuse, because that basically means you fail at spriting in general.

That said, every sprite using shading, be it 2 or 20 colors, obey the same rules. Look at the cheek; it is round like the nose. Try to shade the cheek more like the nose.
