Very excited to see this, Steve! My cockpit, tailplanes and that glorious torpedo are on their way now! Research mtl. continues to arrive and the kit itself showed up yesterday! Cheers from NYC, Michael

New! Vought SBU-1, Command Aircraft, 1:32 scale kit
Michael Scarborough replied to LukGraph's topic in Vendors Board
My dad was in the Navy in the 30s and he said the mantra was, "If it moves, salute it! If it doesn't move, paint it!!". Or, I guess in this case, POLISH it!. Gorgeous airplane! -

WNW Junkers D1 with copper state and elan 13 mini men
Michael Scarborough replied to DrDave's topic in Ready for Inspection
When I first saw the pix of the kit I also thought it was just plane ugly. But, once my kit arrived and I had a look at the parts in three dimensions, it began to grow on me. At the risk of sounding blasphemous, I think it's kinda.....cute. And it's sure different. Great build, Dr. Dave! Congrats! Cheers from NYC, Michael -
Indeed, a great start! Nice to see some real wood involved. Will you vac-form over the wooden form? Cheers from NYC, Michael

First WnW: Albatros D.V Komplete 11/7/18
Michael Scarborough replied to Gazzas's topic in Works in Progress
OK...jumping back in here! So sorry to have been mute up til now, Gaz. Man, you are kicking butt! Personally, I love what you are doing with these wings! Too many people make far too big a deal out of trying to highlight the ribs. It has turned into a fad just like over doing panel lines on metal airplanes has. I think the level of subtlety you have achieved is totally realistic. Bravo. If I may, allow me to add one note of advanced warning re: the WnW Albatros kits: the struts are beautifully in scale, but, as a result, really, really weak. They will sag if you over-tighten the rigging at all. Ask me how I know. Cheers from NYC, MIchael -

"I was wondering where you got off to,.. Gaz" Well, boys, it sure is nice to be missed! Thank you....you make me feel one of the group. Lots going on here Chez Scarborough. Hopefully it will slow down a bit and I will be more present. Cheers from NYC, Michael -

David, this is as high a compliment as I can imagine receiving. Thank you, sir! Actually, I am lucky enough to live a just a few miles from the Met and spend at least two days a month there. When I left 25 years in performing arts and moved into the present madness of decorative and fine art, it was in large part due to the influence those visits had had on me. Here's what I do now: http://michaelscarboroughdesign.com/ Cheers from NYC, Michael
