It depends. Coloring can sometimes make things easier in the drawing because it covers up a lot of stuff and can allow for some short-cuts. Usually when I have to color a page I tend to rush the drawing more because I don't want to spend forever on a single page. I try to go fast enough on both so I can get the page done in a day or a day and a half.
That picture up there was done relatively speedy, but it was in this "new" stye. In fact, many of my colored pictures are. Like the Julia Chang picture or the "Lara Croft" picture, etc. (See my DA page for reference).
I actually prefer The Dreadful in the black and white art. I think the line-work looks better. If I ever decide to color it I'd probably do something more flat, kinda grainy and washed out. That would be a lot of work though, especially since unlike HIKYM I'm writing The Dreadful (writing takes up a lot of time sometimes).
