Yep.

I don't suggest pushing yourself into coloring if you don't want to. There's a wonderful effect in shading, if you know how to do it right. And don't worry about the messy lines too much.

If you really want nice lines, you can go in and ink it later or trace over it onto another sheet of paper, or even shrink the lines down with an eraser. ^_^

Lol. Yeah, you're good. But need work... ^^ Hee hee, you aren't as good as me, but here's a tip:

First, draw the head, then w/e. Draw really softly, then do more details.

^^ And, try drawing necks to the heads...lol...that'll get you to a good start!

Tracing gives a different effect than actually drawing. The lines aren't exactly the same and sometimes it's the kind of stroke that makes a line that makes a drawing nice. I used to trace as an exercise, just to give myself practice on what goes where, how different kinds of things should look.. proportions and that kind of stuff. It does help.

Of course tracing doesn't show skill. It's really sad when all some people do is trace and then call it their own work.
