maybe a few others that coulda made the list but generally on point...
Pretty spot on, gotta say though there missing people like pubes/darns/dorps, they too also made a name for themselves both here and overseas and the nos should be number 1, don't think anyone in the world will achieve what he has.

I find it hard to see a list like that without having Tudor and Snooze on it. I Think Snooze was the most talented in Fab4 and Tudor was probably the best around for the 1980s. I'd also see Unique and Mr.E on there as well, but I'm Sydney biased.
Probably my nostalgia showing through more than anything.

On Topsafe's recent trip to Sydney Australia, the guys had the good fortune to meet with Ozzie legend and top bloke, DMOTE. Here he gives us his top 25 writers in the history of graffiti in Australia. In his words, ""It would be hard to make any kind of numerical placements so I'm going to just mention them in no particular order and they're respective contributions."

The reason tudor, snooze, unique, and mr e aren't on the list is because they painted f@#k all trains................
That would also count out the other two Fab 4 names in that case.
The other 2 are on there because they would have painted some of the first stylish graffiti ever in Sydney, if not Australia.......landmark"CAS"-"STYLZ"

Actually I think that title would go to Blaze, if I remember correctly. Also, Haro was a hell of a writer but he did not do that many trains either, he didn't even branch out from Artarmon and its immediate environs that often. It may be based more on exposure given the years that Dmote and Haro ran together.
All opinion in the end, though. I wish I could paint half as well as anyone mentioned here.
