Tip: Include detail, but know when there's too much or two little. Add texture to the image being created with said detail.

Shading is key. Rather than just use lighter and darker versions of the same colors, make your shadows and highlights slightly different colors. For instance, if your base color is blue, make your shadows a bit purple, and your highlights a tinge more green.
