tomcruisemom'sshoes Posted January 31, 2017 Share Posted January 31, 2017 The term "benching" originated from the 70s and 80s in new york city when writers would go to the subway station platforms and sit down on the benches and watch the subway cars pull in.

theprotester Posted January 31, 2017 Share Posted January 31, 2017 Yep. 149th street grand concourse bench is somewhat of a graffiti pilgrimage destination. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Utah_Bench Posted February 13, 2017 Author Share Posted February 13, 2017 Not asking for locations of writers or anything like that but, I'm just wondering if any writers works I post are recognized by anyone here? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Utah_Bench Posted February 13, 2017 Author Share Posted February 13, 2017 Yup. You are getting much more than local traffic. Thanks One man Banned.

Utah_Bench Posted February 22, 2017 Author Share Posted February 22, 2017 I didn't want to start a new thread for this because I bet a lot of you have seen it before so, I figured I'd just post it here. This toy caught my eye in the store today, train cars with graffiti. Is the art from a writer you guys know or just random art they found and used?

One Man Banned Posted February 22, 2017 Share Posted February 22, 2017 A little hard to tell. It appears someone has copied from some different artists and pieces they have seen. There are a few brands doing this, and others that make decals to go on models. Usually someone has copied something they saw on a fr8, sometimes quite poorly, and made it into a decal. Know I've seen Jase, Ich, Mecro before on models (made for rail fans). There are subway versions done specifically for graf fans/collectors (and much more expensive).

I figured it wasn't something new but, being new at benching I had never seen one before. Thanks for the info One Man Banned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fist 666 Posted February 23, 2017 Share Posted February 23, 2017 Nothing says "graffiti" like tagnames vendetta and blaster, with urban skyline backdrops... That makes sense for an airbrushed t-shirt at the county fair for your white trash nephew, but a scale train? SAD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
