The Inkie piece was still pretty intact though, at least it was a week ago...

As Hero said, recentlu there was a Helloween theme and the pieces from that time are still there and stunning. Love this one.

That was a beaut, there's a massive throwup over it now, haha. Not to worry though there will be something over that within a couple of days. Awesome place, there are constantly people painting there.
