Skip the formalities - quick drawing for patreon

I used softer gradients and contrast on this picture, as well as painting on top of a haze-like gradient instead of using a gradient at the end to see what it does for my drawing. most importantly I tried to flatten some of the line art onto the painting because I was having that dilemma of lines vs no lines again, where both sides have different benefits in their own way. This time I tried to use layer mask to mask out PARTS of the out line that don't contribute to the picture, instead of getting rid of the entire line art layer. I think this might be the right direction for pieces that I want less of a 3d painting look and more of my old, nice drawing looks where I still preserved all line art.
