[COMMISSION] Arcade Nights [Collaboration w/ Smidg3n]

Another very big Collab featuring www.artstation.com/smidg3n as a commission for BlackMagicZebra on twitter!
I mapped out the original perspective/composition for the room and handed it off to @smidg3n for the character sketch and the clean up/details! After getting a gorgeous sketch back, I Inked it, colored, rendered, added the background, retro & bokeh effects to the end result!

After receiving the initial sketch from Smidg3n, I inked and added clothes to the subject to fit what the client wanted!
