the base colour really does end up being a big part of the whole colours and that's kinda on purpose. to me, it helps keep the colours more harmonious, it keeps the whole thing having a similar vibe

you could try to put more opaque colours over the base colour, or try putting colours over the base colour with a different brush.

for choosing the base colour(and most other colours), I kinda try to think about what colour palette I want my drawing to have. like I'll decide, "I want this whole thing to be very blue, I'm gonna make the base colour blue, the shadows more purple and the highlight's more cyan", i only do this when im drawing pretty dramatic lighting tho

when I don't have lighting that dramatic, I choose it based on the colours of the thing I'm drawing, like a slugcat, they're mostly white so i'd choose a pastel colour. I try to pick a base colour similar in darkness to the colour of the thing(light=lighter base colour, dark=darker base colour)

(I think about both of these things when I'm choosing my base colour, I just consider one or the other more depending on how dramatic the lighting is)

lots of time when I'm drawing the base colour is also too visible for me so I put filters over it till its closer to the colours I want.

also, often when I'm drawing I put swatches of the colours I'm using next to the drawing. so when the base colour is shining though to much I just go over it again with the colour

they're like these little dots of colour so I can colour pick them easily

this was a stage of my watcher art, the colours look way different then they do in the finished thing. I accidentally made the base colour too light and didn't put the colours over it opaque enough, so I put filters over it to make it darker. in most of my drawings the colours look pretty different when I stared to when it's finished

Remember that you don't have to listen to this exactly tho! ^^ experiment however you want with your art lol

@willjelly my attempt at replicating ur style!! :D How do u go about ur colors, and choosing your base color, because the base ends up being the whole main thing
