The memory study is looking good. It's a lot more saturated than the original, but I wouldn't call that a bad thing (unless you're striving for complete 100% accuracy... sometimes it's good to put your own flair on things too!).
To kinda echo what Jyonny said - trying to not use digital crutches is really good for training.
However, if you want to go down the comic path, these are going to be massive time saving features for you to embrace. Imo when colouring (especially for comics/comic style) layers are your friends. A lot of artists use layers and layer styles because they are so adjustable. It means you aren't locked into anything and you can really experiment and rein back in without having a massive headache on your hands. Experiment with your workflow and see what works for you :)
