The colored version of Samoied's: http://www.furaffinity.net/user/samoied/ :lineart drawing Sheshonq the Pharaoh: http://www.furaffinity.net/view/530549/ :. He gave me permission to color it when I asked to do so. So I took his really neat and cool drawing of his Egyptian Pharaoh character and gave it a royal treatment worthy of a living avian demigod son of the god Horus. What say you? I thought I colored his drawing rather well don't you know, aye. :)

Thank you very much, aye.
It took a lot of work, and personally kicking my own keister, to get improved on my own coloring and what have you. If you look at some of my previous work, you can see my skills just improving over time.
I did not spend a small fortune, when I had a job, to buying loads of art books on how to draw and color and shade. My favorites are the ones on how to draw, color, shade and ... etc on digital software.
Bold Visions: A Digital Painting Bible by Gary Tonge, Digital Manga Workshop by Jared Hodges and Lindsay Cibos, Digital Manga Techniques by Hayden Scott - Baron and Drawing & Painting Fantasy Worlds by Finlay Cowan all have been good to me in exponentially improving my skills in coloring and shading and editing.
The Manga Matrix by Hiroyoshi Tsukamoto has been great in making characters up and balancing them.
Drawing Cutting Edge Anatomy: The Ultimate Reference Guide for Comic Book Artists by Christopher Hart and Hi - Yah!: How to Draw Fantastic Martial Arts Comics by Steve Miller has been good in teaching me to simply draw my characters and make them lively, dynamic and action oriented.
And lastly, and for the fun of it, Celtic Art: The Methods of Construction, Lavishly Illustrated With Line Drawings & Photographs (constant reprint since the 50s, LOL) by George Bain has been fun in helping me teach myself to do Celtic weave art (not as hard as it looks, only looks that way when finished, it is just a simple connect the dots and outline thing, LOL).
And that is what I basically use at the moment, not to mention a load of tutorials on the net and Deviantart.com. I hope I helped in guiding you to good sources for your own improvement, aye. ~ .
