There are a few full color pages at the beginning of each volume.

The First 4 volumes are available in full color. There is also an omnibus that has all 4 volumes in one book.
This is the cover of the omnibus (taken by my phone camera)

Yes they are, and The Omnibus is not expensive. the 4 volume full color omnibus is at 33$ at amazon. At launch it was about 50$/60$

I got the Omnibus version from Amazon as well. It's way bigger than your standard manga as well. Without any actual dimensions, I'd say 40-50% more surface area per page?
The cover has some funky special coating so the blood splashes feel.. different.

I was thinking of picking it up, you think local comic stores have it? I'd feel better getting it in my hands on person then online.

So, wait, was this a larger-page CG coloured release of the same source, with identical content? Lightly edited?
...or a full-scale redraw? 😕

Well, comparing it right here on my lap to the scans on my screen, I'm rather secure in saying it's the former. Some difference in color depth and whatnot when comparing to the scans, but generally it is the same as the color pages from the otherwise black-and-white publications.
There is also a rather nice number of full color artwork in between the actual chapters and such. Even the cover has a nice and naughty backside if you want to flip it or use it as a poster.
Also, now that I bothered to compare the size to my Negima volumes, I'd say the page size is straight out double when compared to normal.
