I'm amazed by manga artists who can draw backgrounds with no greys and still make it look good. I've tried, but all of my attempts have looked terrible. I find making them in greyscale to be far easier, and I think they look better too.
I've been switching the amount of shading on a page by page basis, but I saw in a lot of manga they switch sometimes on a per-panel basis, and thought I'd try it out because of the background in panel two. The downside is the shaded environment didn't match the rest of the art in the panel, so I had to shade the characters too, but then that panel looked odd by itself because it doesn't match the others, which made me feel that I needed to at least shade panel three, which made me want to shade all of them, and at that point it would have taken way longer. Gah. I've got to study more manga to learn how they do it.
