What blackD said. Also you seem to have lost some of the detail with your bezier curves. On the sketch you have some smooth flowing curves, whereas on the computer drawn version some of the curves are missformed.

BlackD's mockup reflects what it could look like, I think if you mixed the line style you had in your version, with the coloring and original detail from blackD's you might find the best result.

Using textures is a bad idea tho.
