Description
So yeah, i made this for EQD's Newbie Artist Training Ground III this was day 2 theme, "Draw a pony walking/on a journey". I don't like to work with deadlines since i tend to miss them AND to make a mess...so i thought this could have been a good chance to stop that trend.It didn't really work but whatever, i have Lyra walking on her hindlegs your argument is invalid.
EDIT: Well, i fixed some small errors, readjusted her CM and changed the resolution to glorious 10k
you can also find the source file here sta.sh/019wpgvs7j6y ( i had to set the raster effect resolution at 72 ppi but i used 400 for the export )
and as always

I'm gald you like it that much
As for the shading thing, there are many aspects to that. The basic idea is to use masks to confine the shading only to certain areas on the picture and then draw the shapes for the shadows. To really help you, i'd need to know if you are familiar with masks ( clipping and opacity ), blurs ( either svg or gaussian ) and knockout groups ( having a look at your gallery i assume you are using illustrator, tell me if i'm wrong ).
Also, feel free to send me a note if you prefer

Looks good to me, with the shading/highlights and the light fade toward the center.
