He sketches first and thinks about composition

Then he puts down solid blocks of value and uses a white or black brush (whichever is the opposite of the color he put down) to sketch out what he wants, and then colorpicks from the BG around it to refine the block-in. This guy has been drawing for so long (or has planned with thumbnails before the video) that he already knows exactly what he wants byt he time he's sketching. Either go do some thumbnails first or try to sketch out where everything is before you start your values. You need to make sure everything is in proportion.

When he puts color down he glazes it over. I'll see if I can find you something about that stuff but it comes down to having good values and then doing a color overlay, then painting on top of that.

Paintings should always progress all at one time like pic related. Big ideas first and foremost then you go down to the little ones.

Do it like this. Sketch - big shape block in -> more specific+rendering, then detail.
Your brush is too small for the stage you're at right now.
