Brass0four Posted June 22, 2014 Share Posted June 22, 2014 (edited) Hi Jaz, sorry to read about the hands, and as for needles, well they usually peel me off the floor, hahhaha. Oh SH*** Blood test on 4th July, book the paramedics now. Hi Jaz, as mentioned elsewhere, your work is much toooooooooo valuable for sick-leave to be allowed! All the best, Bodge. No excuse for anything less than a full recovery - your list of completed layouts is far too short! Tony.

Jaz Posted June 22, 2014 Share Posted June 22, 2014 Hi Kal / Jaz Happy belated birthday wishes for yesterday mate. Any nice new shiny loco's appeared at all??? Jaz's graffiti is rather good. Better than some of the real stuff I see when I'm out and about. Was there some sort of mis spent youth you're not telling us about. LOL. Cheers Marcus Art College.Three year worth....in the days when you did a full day and a full week.....and they paid YOU for the privilege. I grabbed my diploma, and left to take up a full time job. I should perhaps have done the 4th year and got the degree, but I have no regrets on that score.Must admit I look on good graffiti as being free art. As long as it is not damaging peoples proper, however I think on otherwise empty railway walls or bridges if done to a good standard it is really nice.I especially like the ones that look to be breaking through walls or have fire or water effects. 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
@Jc Posted June 22, 2014 Share Posted June 22, 2014 A belated Happy Birthday Kal. Jaz, the graffiti looks brilliant - the oo gauge equivalent of a Banksy. I thought of AV yesterday as I passed through Peterborough on a train trip. Can I have @JC added to the wall of flame. I do not mind what colours or effects you use. I look forward to seeing what you come up with!!! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I look forward to seeing what you come up with!!! Happy to do so....I came across several effects I like....so it's a good excuse to add more. With Kal and fire I decided my lvd of water effects and being the opposite of water worked well. I'll see if I can incorporate something catty....for pastel. 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marcus 37 Posted June 22, 2014 Share Posted June 22, 2014 That's really starting to look impressive now. You do realise when you've run out of wall you'll have to start on the rolling stock. Better start hiding your loco's Kal!! Ha Ha. Anthony's looking forward to seeing his name appear. Cheers Marcus Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaz Posted June 22, 2014 Share Posted June 22, 2014 I got it blue and yellow for Anthony. I'll do @Jc first as he confirmed first. I'll finish posting mine, and design both of yours. Then hopefully paint them tomorrow. I'll try some more authentic looking graffiti styles as well. And make sure I can get one good individual picture. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brass0four Posted June 22, 2014 Share Posted June 22, 2014 (edited) By comparison to vivid complexity, my commission, Jaz, is as follows: - A capital *T* with the vertical taken up, through and beyond by, say, a quarter of its normal length - a crucifixion cross with a bit chopped off; Over a capital *K* which is turned on its side so the vertical is now horizontal,, like the dividing line in a fraction sum. A slight difference is both diagonals should meet, below, like an upside down *V* Stylistically, it is a Sino-Japanese pictogram, done in black on the plain concrete. Essentially, it is my initials on professional pen-and-ink artwork. The T is for Tony, and the K is for my surname, King. I haven't even a working scanner so I can't show you but it couldn't be easier. It doesn't want to be large "2 sleeper-widths X 2 sleeper widths, approx." and will be a contrast to the more sophisticated. Interestingly, studying the Kanji (Jap) I found the top of my signature could read "heaven" and the bottom, "earth.". Having discovered this I was joined to it forever... As people will - understandably - be pestering you with complex pms, I thought I'd offer this alternative. Everything should no be too impressive or the wall might be swamped, having said which, that's your business NOT mine!

RMweb Premium Sasquatch Posted June 22, 2014 RMweb Premium Share Posted June 22, 2014 The best bit of graffiti I ever saw was in San Francisco in a side street. A big line of Star Wars storm troopers with the words SUPPORT OUR TROOPS. done underneath with over lapping shadowed letters. Black and white on orange and red back ground, all propaganda like. Maybe a little too hard for your wall. 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happy days. To clarify, Tynemouth Red Watch were the best guys on the planet and I was fortunate to work with them.

@Jc Posted June 22, 2014 Share Posted June 22, 2014 The best bit of graffiti that I have seen was scrawled on a block of flats. It read: "if you lived here, you would be home now". 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brass0four Posted June 22, 2014 Share Posted June 22, 2014 (edited) One of the best in my youth - when large-scale graffiti was unknown - was FREE NELSON MANDELA. ~It was everywhere, mainly white or black but large and in - for then - impressive locations. Ah, the *60s... sigh. (Then, and later, a certain M Thatcher called him a terrorist... ) Edited June 22, 2014 by Brass0four 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold ChrisN Posted June 22, 2014 RMweb Gold Share Posted June 22, 2014 Then there was Free George Davis under which was scrawled, with every 4 gallons. I will explain when I have a good internet connection if one is needed. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

artizen Posted June 23, 2014 Share Posted June 23, 2014 Waaaaay back I went to a Floyd concert in Auckland NZ. Best bit was the flying pig - caught everyone by surprise. The only regret from those times was missing out on Led Zeppelin. Sigh. The days of my misspent youth. I don't think you will have much trouble completely filling the wall with "art". Do you have a suitable political statement you could add in or would that date it too much? 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium Sasquatch Posted June 23, 2014 RMweb Premium Share Posted June 23, 2014 so have you a picture? No sorry! Like you ever have a camera to hand when needed. I wanted to get a picture of two huge jack rabbits the other morning but the SD card wasn't in the camera and when I found it, it was full. By the time I'd deleted some naff images the rabbits had taken off. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
