If you've been shading with pencil and paper and done some still life and portrait studies with those tools for a while then jump to color. If you're just playing with idea of fully shading something with pencil then start with grayscale. When I jumped to digital, going straight to coloring was very easy as I would often try to shade colored pictures I would find on the internet with pencil and paper and then check my work by making the picture grayscale in an image manipulator. Doing that gave me an inherent ability to "feel" the darkness of certain colors and the ability to see small differences in value.
