Pretty much what Dex said. It's much better to at the very least start with edits. Recoloring takes no real effort and doesn't help you get any better. At the least, with edits, some of the work is your own. Customs would be the best though. Even if you're not amazing from the get-go, it you listen to crits and work on them, you'll definitely improve.
