I ain't no artist but I can give the advice of make sure the pencil is sharp and make sure its a good colouring pencil that will leave the colour nice and clear.

Make sure the tip is sharp, get higher quality colored pencils since unless you're downright amazing odds are regular colored pencils won't work well. Learn how to shade, make sure you have both a lighter and darker version for every color (so for example, light red/red/dark red). 

 

Also from the look of the second picture you posted, the artist used standard colored pencils and then used specialty markers for the outline/whites. Really it's all about shading when it comes down to it.

I draw in layers, First a very thin one then a medium and in the outline, and  where the shadown is going to be a harder one, And then i "smudge" it out a bit with my finger :3
