Let me start with the positives- the anatomy improvements you did on the body look great( i still see some issues they are noted below). I love the color and I see a heck of a lot of promise here.

Please do not take offense with what is below it is solely intended to be helpful.
While I like the shading(for the most part) and can see some of your anatomy improvements I notice that the head is very heavy and the shading/highlights are not as detailed as the rest of the body.
The hind legs are too close together as well. The front legs have a rather odd appearance . The far front hoof is set too far forward where it joins the fetlock. I would suggest having it connect a bit further back with less curve on the front side of the hoof. The legs and head would benefit greatly if you went into the same detail as you did the body. I hope I have not offended just trying to be as helpful as possible. I do not mm generally critique here on DA.
