When a card enters the graveyard...

I was playing in a FNM draft and I had a Viridian Revel and a Liquimetal Coating in play and my opponent had 3 lands and some creature. I had a Shatter in hand and tapped the Liquimetal Coating to turn his creature into an artifact and used Shatter to destroy it. When the creature enters the graveyard does it still have the "artifact" type so that I am able to draw a card?

yes, a creature 'enters the graveyard' with the same properties that it had when it died.

this is also true for power/toughness. if something checks for a creature's power when it goes to the graveyard then that power will be the same it was at the end of combat, including any boosts or penalties(giant's growth, -1/-1 counters)
