Hi Nexuun - great start on your sketchbook :) you're on the right track definitely.
Value hmmm! all I can advise is make yourself a value range chart with whatever pencil you're using before you start usually from 0-9 with a mid-tone inbetween, then you have a better idea of what value range the object your drawing falls into...
also squint, squint a lot, it makes it easier to see the values. Then open your eyes to see colour (also sycra on youtube has some great videos on colour and everything else)
keep up the sterling work :)
