I love shaded drawings myself (a la Zyene), but dang, they can be hard to do! And line drawings can be very powerful, I think, very suggestive - but they do require some sure, bold strokes to bring out personality. It depends on what you want to accomplish with your art, don't you think?

I started with outlines, thinking line-drawing might be the way to go (a la coloring books) But shading might be where it's at.
