Hey, thanks. I think i should get some information about general drawing before doing more serious pixel art like this. Thank you a lot!
I think the reason you are having difficulty shading is because you don't know quite what your forms are doing/would be doing in 3d space. The problem is more underlying than just shading. I suggest looking up a lot of references of minotaurs and see how the forms look and how they are constructed.
My edit is just an outline of what direction it could go.
To learn shading you need to get a good understanding of how light defines shape. Here's a kick-ass tutorial on shading and other useful things:
