mars, i'm really attracted to your black and white work. i was thinking a interesting idea for your coloring, besides just using the paint brush or pencil in photoshop, would be to apply various textures and colors to it. i don't know if you saw the stargirl picture that i made as an example.

for the orange parts, i scanned in cardboard and packing tape.. then made it a color. i did this by taking the scanned image and desaturating it, then you put the color you want over it, hit multiply, then inverse the texture and the color layer. then merge the two, then inverse again and your texture is now that color.. it works pretty awesome.. i don't know if that made sense or not..
anyway, that's just a suggestion.. i think it would be pretty cool.. your drawings kind of remind me of
