I refer to my adjusted colour photo and switch to the flood fill tool and start filling in areas of colour in my cleaned-up pixel drawing. At this point things are still looking pretty flat, though.
I have replaced some of the black lines with other colours, and I create depth with shadows and highlights by adding darker and lighter tones.
