I can't find a nice definitive resource for line drawing exercises (the one I had is MIA?) so pic related will have to do. In short, linework should be clean and essentially be able to hold itself on its own in regards to showing thickness, depth, and light source. It shouldn't be required to have color to be able to decipher and the coloring should work with the linework, not against. If the linework lacks weight than it will look bland, and if looks like it was hacked out with numerous lines it will look rough and unpleasant to look at.

As for color theory Blender guru has a video called "Understanding Color" that is a nice general explanation vid

If you don't have a strong color scheme your art can suffer, it can become bland and uninteresting and the lack of harmony can cause a piece to look gaudy or clunky. And just as bad, the "wrong" colors (and saturation/value) can cause someone to look dead and emotionless as somewhat explained in the video.

Anyone got any good lineart/inking tutorials for this upcoming memetober?

think about out line before you draw it, maybe hover just above the paper/ tablet and when you are ready do it in one strike.
