    Good day skullbrainerz!
    ~I am a newBEE. I have been a FAN for bit, i mostly love to look at the new drops and customs.

    Here is my CUSTOM 12" Deka Skull Bee.
    Mostly done in acrylics with a line and dry brush, but added brown/black with H.O.C. automotive paint with an airbrush.
    :D

    Heck yeah, that Deka custom is sick. Thats the one I found on a show flyer for Rivet gallery a week ago or longer. Looks like bone, and we all know Skulls rule, he he.

    I found the show flyer this piece will be in, I knew this was the same one.
    Will there be other Japanese vinyl customs in this show?? I understand if you are keeping it quiet also. I hit up Datadub about this but I think he focus' on super events only.

    I love the antennie. This piece really shows allot of light sourcing in the darker to lighter fades, the more I look the more I love.
    Jim you have a pm sir.
