Keep it simple I reckon. It's gonna be a lot of extra work for your print guy to add in colour layers, and we're buying this for your great sense of design and the crisp linework more than anything else! I do like the look of some of those samples you posted, but if you are gonna go the colour route, I suggest maybe doing some bigger screenprinted (maybe too much work for woodcut?) pieces on heavier stock (and charging accordingly!)

I got my prints yesterday and they look amazing as they are - the black ink and the natural looking paper work really well together. I had to make sure my hands were clean as I couldn't stop pulling them out of the envelope to look at them. Finally I have some Tikishark art!
