Finishing Off The Details Of The Revell Go Mad Nomad For The 2022 Deformed Cartoon Group Build

Today I am carrying on with building my Dave Deal Go-Mad Nomad model kit! 

Today I thought I would paint the two-tone color for the roof and show how I masked the lighter color from the darker color. I used Tremclad Key Lime Green for the body and Tremclad John Deere Green for the roof.  

The paints I am using are enamels and take a lot longer to dry than acrylics, so hopefully I can get this model finished before the deadline for the Group build. Luckily, Papa Dan is giving us a slight extension to get the photos in for his video. 

My video today does show the techniques I am using, but really, it's your ticket to spend 15 minutes with me in this fun little build. 

I also show the base color of the Boogie-Board as well as a quick mock-up of the body and the painted details on the chrome components including the parking lights and Chevrolet emblem. 

So my good friends Papa Dan and Col. Reb are hosting a group build for the month of September 2022 called the 2022 Deformed Carton Group Build.

In this group build, you can submit a video of a model that you want to build, and then progression videos of your work as you go along. 

The details for the group build can be found on the HobbyTime With PapaDan's YT Channel here : https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCiF0yjtAnMkzIrj6HIHcEKw

I am not hosting this Group Build, but I thought I would enter for something quick and fun to do while my kids return to school. 

The model I want to build is the Go-Mad Nomad by Revell. 
The kit was originally released in 1969, 1970 and again in 2014 and was designed by cartoonist Dave Deal.
My kit is the 2014 edition.  

The Dave Deal Go-Mad Nomad model kit is part of a series of cartoon cars such as the ZZZZZ-28, '57 Chevy, Trans Um Tirebird, Spits Fire, The Baron and Van model kits which were part of the Deal's Wheels model kit series.

Revell Dave Deals Wheels Model Kits are quite simple to assemble, and a joy to paint. The instruction sheet reads more like a Saturday Morning Cartoon than serious model car instructions. The "Story" for this instruction sheet is all about a Surfin' Hippie that gets lost somewhere in the country and asks a local farmer for directions to the beach. 

For a full examination of this model kit, check out my unboxing video found here : https://youtu.be/Yx6QGqy5Oq4

Good luck on your model kit build and we'll see you on YouTube!
