DarkTari · Post by **DarkTari** » Sun Sep 17, 2006 10:00 am

I've been tryin different things with this TVR body and have found there are a hella lotta
Different models to work with. This one is the TOTL model, "The Sagaris "

Of course, again, it all starts here.....

Goes here.....(2 Da Booth)

Shooting for dis...

And ends here......(at Da Show)

The whole front end has been grinded down and smoothed to get a less bulky look that the original.
All sharp edges have been smoothed to give an "original" look. Wheel arches have been
enlarged for full wheel mod.

Damn.... <whistles>

DT hits another one out of the park.

I'm assuming this is another one for Bonzer.

Of course I'm wondering whats next out of his shop, I think I remember something about more of these TRV's for Bonzer.

Now imagine DT working on a X-Mod, with what he does to this scale what could he do to 1/28.

I'm not a fan of your tailpipes. Now that that's out of the way....

That body is niiiiiiiiiiiiiiceeeee. Honestly, I would not have seen the front kit if you hadn't posted the booth pics. That is a stellar job. I especially like the contour behind the corner fins. You MUST be out of TVRs now!!!
Are you doing a course on TVR pimptronics??

Dr. Darktari, phd in british pimping

Nice work, DT.... super clean. How sweet is it that stock Bit wheels are the exact right wheel? I really dig the hell out of the way you opened up the side windows and the roof, especially since it's an opaque-windowed car.

I definately love those front corners of the air dam. Once again, smooth painting. I have so much to learn and practice

Another TVR you made into a shining Ride dang that color is a slap in the face look at me!

I like how your built the front end to look like the ride in the picture did you use Polystyrene on that and the back?

Did you clear coat after the paint or is that just how glossy the paint is?

Great work man! That basment must realy inspire?

Dang Pimp why not ? I thought I did pretty good tailpipes. Now these are one version of what
the original pipes look like on the Sagaris (check pics)
I know, that's why I included the primer pics cause they do show more detail

Yes siree! Ever since I knew about this stuff, I always use it. It comes in
various thicknesses so I always have the right type to do just about anything. I was gonna do the vertical slats in the air ducts and transparent rear
spoiler. Slats are very diffucult at this scale, I'll do it on the next Sagaris. The rear spoiler,
I made the brackets but decided against that cause I didn't prepare the body for them prior to paint.
And it may have broken off while running and I'm not sure how good Bonzer's driving is
HaHaHa ! I've never had any paint come out that shiney! It's sportin 2 coats paint and 2 coats of clear Laquer.

Awesome... just absolutely stunning. The front kit work has to be some of the most intricate I've seen to date.

Oh... lol I see you don't have one of those little tripods... you can see your hands in the reflection in the back of the show booth!

*Picks up jaw*

Holy shit dude , that is really stunning. You have turned a pretty cool looking body , into something absolutely stunning.

DT , Do you ever do custom bodywork for anybody else ? I'd be stoked to have a ZZ body done by you.

Another TVR?!

I didn't initially check this thread because I was thinking it was the other one.

That's great how you've done different takes on the same car. The front end looks killer on that one.
