iwalkwithedead · May 19, 2018

These builds are not perfectly aligned with the OSU theme but they are close for what I like them to be, hope you enjoy the changes and the builds like my brother does.

The images are not the best and I lost some of them from the build process over time. I didn't what I could with what I had to work with and what I could afford at that time.
