Please see my other thread in this same Materials category, for details about my solid cardboard construction methods:
http://smm.solidmodelmemories.net/SMF/index.php?topic=589.0
After a series of uncompleted models I finally finished one (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), .
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 is a fantastic approach to modelling. Congratulations on a spectacular project.
