For those of you who don't know, I have a pretty unique art style. I hand repaint all of my horses. I've been working on a more realistic style of shading, but I've taken a break due to lack of motivation. I've been a little discouraged because me art doesn't get a lot of attention, auctions are empty, my shop if slow. And It's kinda discouraging. I was thinking about maybe going back to the traditional body prep, because I did that in the beginning, and my work would be higher quality. I just don't know if I want to give up on my style.
There's my gallery if you'd like to see my work.

Okay so I like the fact you repaint all the horses, it's your own style and I honestly think it looks good.
however, I would definitely try adding more shadows/lighting on the horse. Don't be afraid to go in with the darker colours! Especially under the head, neck, legs etc. the muscle detailing on the horses is fine, and quite well done. But shadowing/lighting is one thing that sticks out for me.
you could add those in different ways! Either go in and paint them as you did, or duplicate the horse layer, darken it then erase the parts that don't need shadow. This is also how I do my lighting.
Secondly, grounding. I add a slight shadow onto the horses hoof and the floor on a separate layers, gives the illusion that the horse is on the ground. (I see you've done this on some of them)
Theyre the only two things that stick out to me.
dont be discouraged! Art is just trial and error at the end of the day. :)
if that didn't make sense I'm sorry LOL, but if you need further help don't hesitate to PM me :)

Thank you! I really appreciate that. It's been pretty discouraging lately, but I think I'll keep trying
