I had the bright idea to frame it in a poster frame and use it as an arcade wall decoration in a poster frame.


Unfortunately, the paper I used as the background wrinkled and looked crappy. So, I had the bright idea to buy some yellow spray paint…


and paint the wood background to look like a qbert cabinet…



It took only a few minutes to dry and I popped in the sideart. man, it looks good (IMO)…



The lines you see in it now are just reflections in the glass. it looks great, honestly!
