Out of interest, did you have to go over someone else's work to do so? When I last visited, there was very little space left that had not already been covered.

there is a steel door abpout half way down the tunnel and the bottom part had been totally blacked out. I think there was a Faile on it originaly, but to answer your question, I NEVER go over anyone elses work as I wouldn't want it done to mine.

Leake St. Art, by Grafter on Jul 14, 2008 21:58:08 GMT 1, I painted the 'Weeping Angel' onto a steel door. Really wanted to get that one up down there and managed to get it in the main tunnel.
I left the rose off of it though as I had to make a quick exit from 3 security guards. Fortunatley there was another forum member on hand who did a great job keeping them busy while I got away.
Well done, that Man, You know who you are.

there are quite a few pieces that have been bombed over. some look better, but a lot of them have been tagged with pre-teen slogans along with the odd silver p***s.
i was pleased to see my butterlfies still up

Security Guards? Where they just passing or where they there for Cans as there are several painted notices saying that Blank Expression will not prosecute graffiti artists.

Leake St. Art, by Grafter on Jul 15, 2008 0:17:40 GMT 1, I painted the 'Old Lady' stencil on the 1st day of Cans, it just got somewhat overlooked due to it's position.
The tunnel is still part of the station and the railway security and transport old bill are always in there, mainly looking after the tramps and junkies who frequented the place long before anyone decided to paint it.
I think you'll find that the signs saying 'Graffitti writers won't be prosecuted' are actually a piece and are not any kind of official signage. Quite cool, actually.

Leake St. Art, by snowflake8888 on Jul 15, 2008 11:07:53 GMT 1, Hi Grafter, I saw the Angel. It's nice! I also noticed Copyright put something in the main tunnel too. There do seem to b pieces that have been covered up. Also there's marker scrawlings and crude tags everywhere, but thats what would happen eventually.
I absolutely did not know that no more spraying was allowed and I rode up on my bicycle and sprayed a stencil on an unmarked pillar. I didn't see any security and I was there on a Saturday afternoon!
