Excellent. Almost worth going to Bradford for!

Now that is gettin' up!!

great stuff,well done.

Replete did you do the guy in the swimming goggles ?

Green one looks great...reminds me of when I used to visit the Lake District when I was a kid. Here and there some sheds and storage bins like this in the middle of nowhere asking to be tagged

Cheers mate, means a lot coming from you. The summer explosion has just begun me thinks. If you fancy a trip up north your more than welcome.

Just found this pic of another wall of ours on an urban exploration website:

Sune, Crie, Pryme, Rota, Replete

Note the customised Danger TPN Discharging sign and the hazard stickers I found in the chemical factory;)

Praise where it's due my friend!
I seriously hope this week isn't another teaser like last years 1 week of sun in April - then F'-all for the rest of the summer! Fingers crossed...

You have been PM'ed

I've just been up to Bradford to meet with R1 and saw this piece in the flesh this evening. Awesome work by the TPN crew. R1 is a top fella and a fuckin' good artist. Pleasure to meet you
Lesson learnt from my trip: all yellow cars deserve to be destroyed, especially fast ones. ;D

It's all about scouting for walls and then being able to talk your way in and out of various tricky situations.

For instance when we painted the factory wall above we ended up talking the security guards onsite into guarding our paint and then giving one of the staffs cars a suprise paint job on request by one of the guards and then only to be told half way through that he was just joking and the guy who owned it might be quite pissed off about it. We made for the exit shortly after this.

Also before that incident I was painting there alone doing this self portrait of me with a melon head and shooting myself in the brains with a banana with the quote "If meat is murder is Quorn wasting police time?" as a injoke at my veggie/vegan mates.




When I chose the wall I was going to paint I found this spent shotgun shell in amongst the dead pigeons skag launchers, and bloodied knickers and left it under the portrait as a grisly touch.



In the middle of painting the door to the floor I was on burst open with a crash (I'd barricaded it beforehand) and two dodgy blokes entered the room. I slinked around unseen behind them with my lucky metal bar to check them out. I caught them off guard by sneaking up behind themand saying "Alrite?" and the look on their faces was priceless as they saw me 6' 5" of masked vandal carrying a metal bar and behind me a bloody portrait half painted on the wall behind me.

Turns out they were just metal thieves and we had a little chat about the price of copper and learned one went by the name of Crafty Casper who liked to pick up dirty women on myspace.

It's these little scrapes and japes that make graf very special in my heart.
