Watercolor sketch and a little bit of the painting process

Hello everyone I would like to show a watercolor sketch and a little bit of the drawing process. This sketch is layered. Each layer dried well before I applied the next one.

I drew it in about 2 hours and the whole process can be divided into 3 stages.
Stage 1 - draw a sketch with a pencil.
Stage 2 - mark the main color spots with liquid watercolor.
Stage 3 - draw all the details

For long sketches, I always use good watercolor paper - usually with cotton content. My watercolor is always invariably "White Nights" ("Белые ночи") of Russian production. And I also use brushes made of wool column.
