So, here I am for my post...
Great News from CSM! I will definitely buy the CSM Starstrutter, if it’s the only existing kit then or not. I keep my fingers crossed for many other 1/32 or 1/35 releases from CSM.

After seeing the CAD images from both Copper State and WNW, I believe I am slightly more impressed with what Copper State has going here.  Will buy one.

Now that CSM has spent the time developing the CAD work, I hope they consider producing a smaller version for 1/48th scale enthusiasts. With a modular component fuselage, it would be possible to kit the series 28, 28.5, 65.5, and 65.7 plus the prototype.

Interestingly this was announced on August 28...

CSM have (kind of) announced a „Starstrutter“ in 1/32th scale on their FB-page! Have a look!!

As usual one company announces one and now another will make one.  Who would have thought two of these kits out in 1/32.  I would prob opt for the Wingnut wings kit myself.  Just for ease of building and details.....

Hmmm... Have you built a CSM Nieuport 17?

The CSM Nieuport 17 is at a minimum on a par with or superior to any comparable kits WNW has done for detail, especially in the area behind the firewall of the engine.  Love how they make the access hatches openable so you can see this area.  Fantastic detail elsewhere, too.  Looking forward to their HB D.1 and I will be getting one.

I hope they put a tagline on the box cover saying they have the best detail behind the firewall of any kit out there.......

^^ They will.  I am helping them with their ad and tag-line campaign as we speak.  It will read "check behind our firewalls: that's were it counts..." 8)
