that'll be awesome. you should photoshop it or at least colour it by hand.

Pretty good, what exactly is this character?
It looks to me like it's a guy but riding on the lines of a female look. The lips are rather interesting and it looks like Lipstick, pretty cool. Something about the face position hurts my head to think about it and makes me noxious maybe it's the lines..
The shading you done is quite like a slick oil blur. Did you add that gray shade digital/with lines? Make sure when you do line art digitally you use a flute type brush/calligraphic brush (bent straight curve) or you can do it other ways. This gives you some of a fluent liveliness to your work as it would be with a real brush. If you try to trace around with a fixed paintbrush your going to weaken the whole image's lines and slur them like they all run ontop of another.
I'd say your best off using a simple Ink Pen for fast fun hobby rather than doing it digital unless you got a tablet.. It's way more funnier and easier! You don't need to get something fancy or expensive it won't make it difficult. Sticking to pencils is perfectly fine too..
