A Breguet or Cauldron would have a pretty decent wingspan in 1/32.

- CSM's release may well be a Nieuport two seater, a Nieuport 10 or 12?

A Giv wouldn’t be too wide,  but a Gvi...
Nieuport quite possible. Lots of good options

I just put an order with CSM for more than EUR  $100, this is my token of contribution to this company for producing these amazing kits and support future developments of more 1/32 WWI aircraft. Vamos CSM!!!

After years of deliberation and not being fully convinced if I want to have it,  I have finally decided to support CSM - their first 32nd scale kit - Ni17 Early - has just landed at my door. It looks very promising and the plan is to build it very soon, after the current project is completed :-)

Haven’t built it but the plastic looks real nice. Both box and instructions are also nicely presented. I intend to buy a few more.

Considering there is no stock left of the Nieuports in Australia, I asked CSM on their FB page about this considering their statement of low sales in WW1 kits. 


"HB D.I moulds cost double of Caudron GIII, we do not have huge sales in our WWI segment, which mean we need to carefully plan what to produce and when to do it. At this point, with such prices on mould manufacturing, we will be able to return the cost in like 10 years or even longer"  https://www.facebook.com/copperstatemodels/


Apparently they have no stock left of any of the Nieuports until 2-3 weeks was my reply from CSM today.  Looks like they are selling pretty well, even though they say they don't get enough sales of the WW1 aircraft kits. 

I had to order my XVII Late on eBay from China...sigh
