Coloring and texture feedback

Hello everyone. I´m trying my hand at drawing and digitally coloring these pictures. 

Now i have used texturing to make the drawings a bit more alive instead of being rather flat. But i´m not sure if it really fits the overall comic style i´m going for. Here is the drawing with and without textures:

  

Should i keep using textures, or rather, do i need more comic accurate textures, maybe? These ones were rather realistic stuff. If anyone knows of a site to get more comic ones, that could help, too. 

Thanks in advance for any feedback.

I don't think this is comic style. It's more CN/Nickelodeon old cartoons style. I suggest you spend some time learning color theory. A good color palette can make your drawing look 100x better.

You´re right, of course. Cartoon style IS what i was going for. Cartoon/Day of the Tentacle/Maurice Noble style. I´ve tried some basic color theory now and changed some colors.



It looks nicer now. Now you learn perspective to make everything in a space look nice and consistent. Also, I recommend you change the color and reduce the thickness of the outlines of everything belongs to the background, or remove them. Most of those cartoons do this to make their characters stand out.
