Hi sorry for the late reply, I’ve been taking a break from social media and haven’t been checking messages. If you are still interested, email me at Johnny@johnnyacurso.com and I’ll see what I can do!
All set up for day two of #BEAVERSTATECOMICCON in a new spot, right at the entrance of the North Sister hall! Stop by and say hi!

Been pretty sick for the last week but finally managed to knock out another custom paint on another Chikdhood Tragedy. Classic party dud colors, but with a little bling.
