Anyway, now I can get on to my favourite part - the colours.  Now, I have coloured these very roughly to show what it could look like, but acutally there are still several hours of touch-ups left.  I have to make sure that all the lines are complete, get rid of any pesky white dots, and make sure that all the different zones of colour work well together.  But as a quick overview, here you go:

So you see, when you look at the original, there's still quite a bit of work to be done!
