I do love pixel art but have to admit I much prefer the 3D one in this case. It would be interesting to see the 3D one with the windmill as I think elements like that would sell it even more.
I'd go for this 3D setup but perhaps with a more stylized (half-lambert?) lighting style! Whatever you choose it looks great, I love seeing this little greenhouse 💚
You know this might sound crazy but you could have a filter to where you give it the option of both. I prefer the pixel but I could definitely see the 3D doing well

What is it about half-lambert that you think would work better here? I've never consciously used that type of lighting I think.
