I thought I'd try some colouring in. I'm not exactly what you'd call talented when it comes to art, but I can use Photoshop, so it was worth a shot.

It's not quite finished and I'd like to add some after effects, but my hand is getting tired so I'll have to revisit it another day.

Wow.

Great pics of the Spad.

In regards to the colouring, I can see that you seem to be following the principal of selecting areas (spandex - torso & thighs) and filling them in using the paint bucket.
Instead, try having the layer layout as such:

<font class="small">Code:[/color]<hr /><pre> Blank layer: name Red spandex - multiply mode -&gt; for colouring only
------------
Original scan - locked </pre><hr />

Now on the top layer, go nuts using the paint brush and cover the whole torso &amp; thighs area.
Those grey and blank spots should disappear.

Then add a new layer set it to multiply and repeat the process for the skin or hair etc..

You got a great base to work with here. If you shade it properly, it could very well become a great finished piece.
