Illy Help

I made these two outlines in Illustrator, but this is only the second time I've ever worked with it so I am not really sure were to go from here as far as coloring and developing the image. Any Suggestions?

P.S. ignore the Maytag repair man thing... it was a weird joke I don't even remember.

Re: Illy Help

Either color it manually or make the lines stronger so you can fill the stuff in with the paint can tool.

Re: Illy Help

Thicken the lines in Illustrator and use the paint bucket. Then go back and draw in the shadows and detail.
