Hi all.
I've always liked nomads. Wanted to build a mild cruiser using Revell's 56 Nomad kit. I airbrushed automotive paint and applied Tamiya X-22 over it. Bumbers and wheels are painted with alclad. Hope you like it
Here is my inspiration

Here it is in scale 1:25

Outstanding model, and very well built :).
If I had one minor criticism it would be the off white, or Ivory you used for the roof, I think it would have been better to use a nice pure white in its place, but that's just my :2cents:.
All round clean and impressive replica though.

I really like the Nomad. If you were making a replica, then the roof color would be a minus, but since that was just your inspiration, good job :)

Beautiful model and very well done, the first pic of the real car blends right in with your model pics. Very nice foil work too, I really like this.

Great work! I actually really like the cream color, I almost always think a cream of off white looks better than a stark white, particularly in scale. I love the inspiration and how you pulled it off - the colors, the wheels, the stance, everything is awesome. And the pictures outside just set it off! Great work!

Nicely done. The ivory works well with the blue you chose.
