Art style: Lo-Fi Anime.
A clearly recognizable likeness of Marcus — keep their real face shape, skin tone, hairstyle, build and any signature look (hair, kit, number). A 34-year-old man of medium build with a slightly rumpled, sleep-deprived look that gradually brightens. Short dark brown hair, a little messy, with faint stubble along his jaw. Expressive tired brown eyes framed by thin rectangular glasses, subtle dark circles beneath them. A gentle, thoughtful face with an easy half-smile. Wears a plain heather-gray crew-neck t-shirt under an open charcoal hoodie. Relaxed, approachable, geeky-but-warm energy. Soft key lighting from a monitor glow. Neutral home-office background with blurred bookshelves and cables.

FINAL STYLE ENFORCEMENT (this is the authoritative rendering directive — it overrides any style wording elsewhere in the prompt):
Render this image in the following art style:
16-bit pixel-art blended with modern webtoon comic illustration in a retro 90s anime aesthetic — crisp thick black outlines, cel-shaded coloring with flat colors and hard dramatic shadows. Gritty urban lo-fi hip-hop vibe. Moody atmospheric lighting with vibrant neon accents (purple, magenta, red) on dark backgrounds. Subtle CRT scanline overlay, glowing elements, expressive sharp anime-influenced features, streetwear clothing.
Every surface, skin, fabric, material, and environmental element must be rendered in this idiom.
