Napoleon

Hey guys,
Um well it's digitally coloured and I wanted make is as a propaganda poster with a bit of a vintage feeling but for some reason I feel a bit uneasy with the colour and text and whether they work or not.

Digital colouring


Here is a pencil drawing which I have coloured digitally. I am currently debating whether to use digital colouring for my next project ... What do people think? Does it add anything to the drawing? (you can see the original at my blog)
I am in two minds at the moment about whether I should stick with this method, or try something else.

Thanks,
Kt.
