Post CommentWay more than 6 people care. This guy will forever be a legend. Rest easy Mariusz!
This guy was absolutely amazing. Shitty news. Rip.
One of my favorite artists and I have several if his pieces hanging on my walls. This is an unfortunate loss for the art and metal worlds. RiP
When most of you die, your families won't even remember you were alive.
For those who says he copied somebody…what have you accomplished in your life?
has Grim Kim taken a break from shilling her woke commie book to pay condolences? I'd check her twitter but I like not having AIDS.
Not even sure why Lambgoat has comments enabled anymore. RIP Mariusz
The guy who said 6 people care looks like such a f*ckin idiot. You know he has suicidal thoughts. Don't do it man it'll get better.
His art that was used as the cover for Walk Beyond the Dark is my favorite of his. But he had so many good ones.
