After a series of uncompleted models (if I am unsatisfied with the way a model is turning out, and if I would have to almost rebuild it to make it right, I'll eventually scrap it; such is the freedom of cardboard), I finally finished one.

Presented here is my 1/20th scale 1950 Nash Ambassador Airflyte. My usual laminated corrugated construction is used, with lightweight cardboard over that, and finished with colored paper.
The colors are authentic; the reference is a site called Auto Color Library, from which you can view any colors offered, for any year, of any brand of car you are ever likely to replicate.

The wheels roll on nail axles.

That's really nice. I think you're style of modeling has really progressed to one of your own. I think a Checker Taxi Cab would suit this style well. :thumb:
