Office "Ink"

I have been experimenting with some newer brushes available for Clip Studio Paint, to create some conceptual illustrations of some design ideas. I've come to really like the look of blue ink and digital watercolor. When placed on a scanned page of grid paper, it can look convincingly "realistic".

I would prefer not to use my usual vector-like art style shown on the right.

Above is a concept I painted in a few hours, partially inspired by Sim Tower from the 90s. I made things pop with white outlines and air brush, like cutouts of paper shadowing on top. If I were to attempt all this in my vector style with full colors, or even some semi realistic style, then it would probably take days of arduous effort and still I would not be satisfied. Sure, this monochromatic blue style lacks contrast, but it gains contrast when compared side-by-side to the other games in the app stores that have super vibrant colors.
