Colour experiment

Whilst I'm populating the monochromatic world of Nocturneshire, I have always been tinkering ways to possibly add colour to them.

For the old characters, I did colour them: examples here here and here. I always felt that the colouring detracted from the work rather than add to it.

A glutton for punishment, I have tried a different approach to colouring but still the same problem I think. I thought I would share anyway.

Here is The Rambling Man, posted today:

And here is the coloured version of him. The problem of the colour making it busy remain, but was an interesting experiment.
