Revell ‘56 Chevy Nomad

[NOBLNG]

This is a pretty nice kit. The only real issue is that the front bumper needs to be moved closer to the grill to be accurate (thanks Dennis!). Plus the front bumper has some mold lines and sprue attachment points that need to be removed. The bumpers and grill are redone with Revell chrome. Paint is Tamiya LP-6 Pure Blue and white primer under Mr. Hobby clear. Wheels and tires are from the parts box. Thanks for looking!?

Beautiful looking paint work, especially with what all you had to go thru to get there. Trim all looks nice and cleanly done and the engine looks great. I like the Chevy Rally Wheels.

Hey Greg, that's a great looking '56.  Well done?

[Rattlecan Dan]

Really nice job! Great looking build.

Dang Greg…that is nice.  The stance, rally wheels, and color combo are all “just right” .  The mods you performed on the front bumper make it look much better than any out the box build of this kit I’ve seen.  Well done…

Great looking build all around and the vibrant blue contrasts nicely with the white. 

[Yeah Nah]

Not familiar with this kit- you've done a terrific job on it Greg!

I just went back and read your WIP.  Doggone, I’m glad that you persevered with the build!  You have turned out one great looking Nomad!

Killer looking 56 Greg.  Love the blue & white.  That new Revell Chrome looks good on the bumpers.  

[NOBLNG]

Thanks for the kind comments everyone!?

Great color choice and love the stance. The chrome looks great, nice and clean.

That's a mighty fine looking 56!  Lovely detailing under the hood and the trim work is spot on.  I really like the way the Rally wheels look on it, a good choice for sure.  Congrats on a well done build!

Excellent Nomad build. Good color combo, and the rally wheels ;look very good with this car. Your engine and engine compartment are very well done,very realistic details.
