As a citizen of the state that was home to Lt. Frank Luke, I'm very happy to see that the company is keeping both the name and the logo inherited from Eric Hight. Looks like they're really getting into gear and I'll be very happy to see (and buy) more CSM products.

Have you visited their new site lately, Vickers?
http://www.copperstatemodels.com/

 They've got a pair of injected FK.8 kits in the works, early and late, as well as an injected Henri Farman H.F.20 and a Voisin III.
Magical times we're living in. :)

Oh yeah, CoyoteMagic!  I've been keeping an eye on it. I'm just so very pleased that CSM didn't walk into history with Eric's retirement. I think we're going to see a lot of very cool stuff from them.

Yep.  That's what he says, Scott.  Square nose and round nose versions.  Rowan is doing the decals.  Should be sweet.

that is very cool, i like the square nose ones especially, copper state dipping the toe into injection. wow. like short run i imagine something on the order of blue max kits? i dont suppose we could be so blessed as to get an aw fk.8 injection kit of eduard/gaspatch/mirage level. i wonder if anyone will ever do a 1/48 dorand ar.1/ar.2 in 1/48? hell we got a salmson 2a2

Well, guys, they're now available and they look amazing!  Especially the Argus.  Go to their home page, click on "Visit Our Shop", select 1/48 on the left side of the screen, then go to "accessories".

Now, since I've already built a Hannover, in what ship can I put the Argus?  I'm sort of planning on converting my Hi Tech Roland D.II to a D.IIa, but are there any others?
Cheers,
Bud

I have an Argus from Koster so not sure if this is a real upgrade, but like his stuff.  and the new Maybach will be another one that is hard to find a home for.  The Bentley I will probably get, wish he did a conversion for a Bentley Camel nose.
