Current mood:  thirsty
So, I've spent a long time developing a style of drawing that I think is punchy and interesting. I like it a a lot because I think it's very 'me'. But there's one problem with it. It doesn't color well. The only pieces that can survive being colored are ones with very large areas of flat black, but my focus is generally more on crazy linework. Coloring that makes it more readable and accessible but also a bit bland.

Take a look at the pictures below. Does it work better in with or without color? Maybe I should use a different coloring style. Help!

I like this image in color better, although that could change with different images. My computer shows the line image in a kind of rough reproduction. I suspect there is a lot more detail and nuance in the original that I can't see on my screen. Definitely a fun creature! Does he/she have a name? :)

Grr. I resized it while it was set to "indexed color", I don't know why that screws things up. Anyway, it's better now.
