Cute! I really like the angular design. If you want to get rid of the grey bits around your black lines, try increasing the contrast on the line art before colour, or choose image->adjust->curves (in photoshop, but I'm sure it can be done in most other paint programs too) and move the dark end of the line further towards black and the light end further towards white. Another trick I like is to copy the line art and paste it on a new layer, then set it to "multiply". This will leave an extra-dark line on your edges.

Thanks for the advice, but the grey line was intended. It was a white stroke on the black outlines, but the effect does'nt appear to have worked on here. It only seems to work on certain sizes.

I liked this image very much. And liked the advice couchmonkey gave too. It is always good to know this tricks. I usually use the second option he gave for my book illustrations.
