Do you use mouse or tablet to colour?

Excellent :) Well, that makes life real easy then ^^ Slap your line art on a separate layer to your colour, and put all the different layers of colour on a different layer. Start with a large image and shrink it at the end so that your lines smooth out and you can put in detail easily.
I was going to suggest using a lasso or vectors to colour. They take longer, but for a mouse user, it gets better results. You seem to have improved alot since visiting the crit thread which I'm really happy about :) I wish you luck with the shading business. It's tough to learn and I'm still not good at it XD

The way my art style is, it seems that less shading and using solid colors look best on it.

It's good to tryout other methods :) Don't settle on just the one style- try others. I find I work best when I do my shading in pencil and colour over it digitally like this:-
It was something is discovered that worked REALLY nicely by mistake cause I hated scanning in traditional colours cause they changed, but I also hated digital colouring. This way, I could put minimal digital effort in and get a great output :)Before that, I coloured similarly to you. Flats with some simple shading. Dont' panic- you've got tones of time to try stuff out ^^

IF you want to try the pencil technique there- you make the pencil layer multiply and it keeps it's integrity :) You'd want to be pretty good with shading in pencil to do it though. Other methods may lend better to you though :)

I am amused, and slightly terrified of what would happen if Dahlia was in Spongebob. XD
This is pretty cute.
