What I do when I shade is make a new layer on top of the drawing with the "multiply" blend mode and draw dark blue or other dark color with low opacity where the shadows are; not the best way maybe but works OK for me.
In any case, this may be a subject for another thread
Sorry if I could not be of more help.
I mean, a pattern, how to color adding a pattern (not a flat color ) If you use a flat color it's easy by using multilply.. I mean, if I want to add a pattern, if I add a pattern on the skirt or tshirt, the multiply don't works anymore with patterns... thats why i dont know how to color patterns...

Like for example in this image... se the pattern of the skirt? It's not made handly, it's a pattern added when coloring the lineart...
