'56 Chevy Nomad " Nuanced Nomad "

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 .

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.
