What would you like as the next Copper State Models kit ?

[Ringleheim]

The obvious answer for me would have been a 1/32 Fokker DR.I, but the recent WNW announcement changes that.

I think CSM would be wise to try to deliver a kit highly demanded by WNW modelers, but not offered by WNW for whatever reason.

A SPAD would probably be the obvious choice, but I don't particularly like those myself!

Also, giving us something Austro-Hungarian, French, or Italian could give CSM an edge relative to WNW as they seem to refuse to release kits of aircraft from those countries.

I would only be interested in a 1/32 release.

I would whip out my wallet and buy, without a nanosecond's pause for thought:

     SPAD XII  -  some great schemes, many ace pilots, cannon armament
     Morane L  -  bags of significant history, famous pilots
     Oeffag Mickl H  -  unique and fab looking machine

FWIW I've been gathering a few bits and might even try to scratch the last two, but the SPAD XII has subtle lines I couldn't do justice to, and only superficially resembles the VII or XIII so I don't think a conversion is on.

I'd be very interested in, and be likely to buy:

     SPAD XIII
     Lohner flying boat, especially L47
     SSW D.IV
     Oeffag 153

Sorry for repeating wishes from elsewhere, but there you go, no point in keeping quiet if someone asks! Great to know that Copper State are listening.

Easy -- SPAD XIII or SPAD VII -- both are often requested, and being French, highly unlikely to be done by WNW.  They had multiple users during their service lives. I love my CSM Nieuport, and want them to have continued success.  The SPAD should be just the ticket, a great seller, plus it's # 1 on my bucket list.

my wishes  are so simple.... a Spad XI or XVI ,a hanriot HD1 or the multiplace HD3 and why not..... just  a Caudron RXI

As long as you're asking, I would enjoy 1/32 versions of the following:

First choice:  SPAD VII and/or SPAD XIII
Second choice: Hanriot HD 1
Third choice:  DH-4

Thanks for the opportunity to have some input.

BE2c in any scale!

[Ringleheim]

PS:  If CSM release one of their Caudron kits scaled up to 1/32, I'd buy it in a heartbeat.

There is one sitting at the Udvar Hazy center for reference and it's one of my favorite WWI aircraft of all time.

Also, the Hanriot HD.1 which has appeared here seems to be quite popular in these type of "wish threads".  It comes up a lot.

That's another really nice looking aircraft.

Thank you guys, for your ideas and support)
I see some of the ideas are possible and pretty real for us)
And something is already in development

As for me I like twin-engine planes myself))

[macsporran]

Brilliant Edgar - a Hansa Brandenburg G.I - I'll buy one!

[Radarman]

For me, how about a 1/48 scale Junkers CL. II or J.I.

But ... but .... but if that's a hint, aren't most (by far) of the suggestions single engine?

Beyond CSM's entry into the 1/32nd arena (which is every bit as exciting to me as the millennial advent of WNW) I was thrilled to see Copper State Models reinvigorated and building steam.

I'd like to see CSM produce the Phönix D.I/II, Halberstadt D.II, Airco D.H.5, Hanriot HD.1/2, and I could certainly go for some of the earlier allied types such as the Voisin, Vickers Gunbus, Sopwith Tabloid, and Bristol Scout in 1/48th and/or 1/32nd.

[gbrivio]

Anything from the Austro-Italian front, including Lohner/Macchi flying boats. But I'm sure that any kit they will issue will be a gem like their Nieuports, and I will be gladly buy at least one.

Sure not, there is currently one single engine one seater in development)
