I am reading "Painting watercolours from photographs".

It looks good. Watercolour is hard.

I have one about oil painting which kind of gives you studies to follow but I only have cheap acrylics and probably the wrong colours.

I use the cheapest watercolours from Daiso. It's good enough for getting an idea on mixing and mastering brush skills.

Use what ever colours you like, you are the artist. ๐Ÿ™‚๐Ÿ˜˜

I know but thereโ€™s specific ones you need to mix or you get unintended/muddy colours. Iโ€™d definitely have to experiment first or buy paints that have the official names
