    You can use the shape builder tool to color as well. I find it much easier than any other coloring method.

    Should I use brush tool to fill the areas with colour? It seems less time consuming. Also, we can paint shadows and highlights with the same technique onto another layer. I have a graphic tablet, so I feel this is much easier.

    What is the advantage of your approach?

      The advantage is that you can then add your shadows and highlights behind the stroke layer. You can also easily select to change colours :)
