Tutorial based on [link]

Manga style watercolor is a simpler way to start because you can usually do your base color and shadows with the same color (just vary the amount of water).

This was done on smooth/hot press 140 lbs watercolor paper over a drawing in waterproof ink. I use M Graham tube watercolors.

The important thing to remember is that with each step/layer I let the paint dry before adding more. Once you get the hang of that you can add in blending with water.

When I do the highlights with white watercolor it's usually pretty thick, with hardly any water added.

Oh uh, any 140 lbs hot press is good. Make sure to use waterproof ink if you are doing it over ink.

The greatest reward is not JUST watching those who are already great, but watching those who are just starting out and watching them, helping them grow. That is true satisfaction.
So, please, use constructive critcism.
err...may I ask,what kind of paper that you usually use and what size?
You seem put much details on your work,and it makes me really wonder
