About loosing detail if you want make sure you keep your initial sketch separate on it own layer you can afterward make a new layers for the painting stage take the initial sketch layers and lower the layer opacity and put the layer on top of the painting layers this way you dont loose anything from the initial construction once thing get to a cleaning stage you just turn off the initial sketch and start to clean up the edgework where lineart was previously.
One thing i will add to add to the comment from JosephCow is try to pay more attention to color use the squint tactic to simplify the color range it also help you spot the value differential.
One thing you can also do to improve your color is to do the inverted method basically you put your reference and drawing upside down and you focus only a specific aspect of the drawing let say color this way your not distracted by the image since you are interpreting something that more abstract for the brain.You can do the same to improve the quality of a line to avoid simplifying what you see.
