Beleive me, it wasn't easy but once I got Da Plan right, it all fell into place.
Just hadda let the paint dry thoroughly before adding the next stage so it did
take a while. It was just a lil difficult masking due to the body angles and
keeping the tape down in the corners so a couple angles are a lil off.
Body work comes easy for me, just that I hadda grind down the insides
so the chassis would fit dropping it this low. I was gonna add box flares to
the rear to even up with the wheels/tyres but decided not to do too much.... :lol:

Again I hadda lotta fun doin these very different looks to da TVR, I really like
this body. I looked at quite a few racers doing this one. Most of the body works
were the same with variable differences, of course paint schemes were all
together different so once I thought of a paint scheme, I just did it 8-)

DT, top job yet again.

Love the body work and the paint job.

Kind of spooky really that you chose that scheme. The guy (Lawrence Tomlinson) who owned the TVR race team (and is featured on the track packaging) also bought a british sports car company called Ginetta. He raced in a pimped up "Austin Powers" union jack paint job as a guest, and ended up summersaulting in it.

Here is the link http://www.teamlnt.com/2006/News/190406-LTRoll.htm




He was fine, nice video there as well.

Thanks again for a brilliant job DT.

Cheers

TB
