Description
Recently decided to pick up this unfinished piece and give it another go. As per ~Aurora-Storm's recommendation, I attempted to define his sleeve a little more since it seemed to meld with the body and all the black there, as well as adding a defined edge to the desk.
This time, I decided to digitally enhance some of the contrast too, since markers seem so transparent on paper, and the whites weren't really white.
Also, any technical things are encouraged since the original image is still in pencil. This was colored on a scan of the image.
***************
A little excerpt from the part of the page that inspired me:
"Then, from the stack of bills, the Shadow's hand removed the falcon feather. The black plume dropped from the long white fingers. It fell directly upon the name of Velvet Laffrey."
~Volume #5: The Black Falcon, p.17

It's really hard to work out where to let black fall into black and where to put the white highlights to give some hints of form. I've struggled with that in this style of drawing too. I think you pulled it off beautifully!
