Awesome! I like the yellow one. This is one of my favorite cars, and I am not really into cars. But this one rocks. Your model looks like a good kit!

That is a fairly simple design I guess and I am glad that you like it Corey.

The Nomad is one of the most popular '57 Chevy body style... I wonder what it might look at 1/144 scale?

Yes, I will eventually release a '55 version, but the next few weeks will be dedicated to the Tucker. Home Improvement was one of my favorite show at some point, but I have never seen this '55. It looks more like a crashed top now LOL! Judging by the door frame, this one is not a Nomad though, I guess it is a 210 2dr wagon. Still a cool car!

Correct, they used a Chev Wagon (empty shell)
dressed up to look like Jill Taylor's '55 Nomad.

If you have never seen this episode, you missed one of the best episodes!

Looks great! I need to buy one of your models to see how you pull off all of those curves

LOL. Absolutely correct Ray!

Dave, that is a shocking picture, it would have been a shame to do this to a real Nomad, I am glad they did'nt.

Papercruise, the curves on your Jeep wagon's hood seems to be a very good start. The fenders on your Ambassador were curved as well, whatever your technique was, you could apply it to any part of a car body.

Thanks Cami, but you use the curves everywhere! You need some hard, straight edges to act as positioning anchors, right? Does the average person have any issues building them?
