I saw a piece by Blood Wolf the other day (their drawing of Toxic), and I thought it was cool how they used a solid color to create highlights, as opposed to using it to tint the desired area. I thought I might take this one step further and use a solid color for shading, too.
. . .
...I'll admit, it's not great, but I don't think I'll be deleting it. This was just a fun experiment, and it turned out better than it could have, I believe.

Sure does! I stopped doing grayscale shading a while ago, and I generally use a dark blue if I shade things. (Not that I shade things very well, but sometimes I feel in the mood to.)

I like the use of additional colors! Helps bring the character out a bit more, I think.

coloured shading is a good technique to try and learn
