Ok so while it is less than ideal you could get one of the squishy tip styluses until you maybe get one with pressure sensitivity that’s compatible.
Now for the actual help you asked for
When you are drawing first off do the rough sketching and then do a finer sketch and then if you want you can do lineart. If you want to keep doing finer sketches then go for it. After the lineart is done you can then do the base color for it. Color within the lines of the whole character. Or you can have color groups where you have the items that are the same colors be on the same layer. Then if you want to make additional coloring youve got two options. Protect alpha and clipping. Protect alpha locks the transparent pixels so it will not color outside of what is already there. This one is not very fixable but clipping does something similar except it is on a separate layer and makes it so you can have the layer clip on top of what is already on the layer directly below it. Both of these options are much easier to keep things clean while not needing to worry about going outside of the lines. If you have further questions feel free to ask
