if this is for real, here's a reality check - he's just using you to get views and comments, which makes him look pathetic and extremely superficial. So please stop spamming.

thank you .
Watercolours are transparent while gouache can be more opaque. I say "can be" because, if you dilute gouache with enough water, it can be similar to watercolour. There's more...binding elements in gouache, i think? It gives off a sort of pastel-ish texture as well. Also, no mistake-making allowed with watercolours, lolol. haha, kidding, you can wash watercolour mistakes off if you're working with good paper, but gouache tends to stick on the paper. on the other hand, you can cover up gouache colours.
I think they're both pretty great in their own way, depending on the style you're going for . I'm gravitating more towards gouache just because i like the thick texture-feel it gives, but watercolour's wet-on-wet looks great too if you can do it right.
best traditional medium imo is oil painting though lolol~ it's the most similar to digital, anyways, and can achieve the most effect that I want with my renderings.
lol sorry, typed too much xDD.

Very intense expression, the use of the calendar leaf was inspired.
