Mr Dribbles - there's no reason why not. Just keep on practising. (Bear in mind that I've been using Photoshop for about eight years now, although for various different things rather than just colouring. I've no idea about Ratty, but I'm assuming he's well-versed in the relevant software, too.)
Oddboy - I never saw that thread, and I do realise that, like Yeowell, Jock is an artist whose work is visually striking in b/w. However, when practising with colour you need to work with various different styles, and Jock's is interesting to work with. Also, it's subjective whether someone's work looks *better* in b/w or not (and, no, I'm not suggesting my coloured effort is ahead of the original?I'm just stating that people have different opinions, and might also point out that it's rather harsh to yell at people just for doing some colouring on a thread about... colouring).
