Learn to use adjustment layers to add color, then paint over to finish.

This style of coloring relies heavily on overlapping color gradations, clean colors and edges, and constant use of clipping masks. Don't try to do this on a single layer. Don't try to blend manually until the end, and only where necessary. Keep each layer to a single color. They are not blended, they are "composited".
