I’m with you Warren.  I’d really appreciate a new tool 1/72 Nieuport 11.

Can’t wait to see what the markings choices will be, especially given the quality of CSM decals. Might be useful on those Amodel/Special Hobby kits insulating the loft!

Hoo boy, this is great news! Given the quality of CSM's recent output I expect these to do rather well.

...  I am a little bit disappointed by that choice.

I'm proud to say that I've learned to really respect your views and talent, Prez ...

However ... ;)

I'm delighted by this CSM choice, and looking forward to these kits as much as I am the Hanriots!!

Here's a potential scheme that would be a winner, I think:

(That's a great paper model)

Hi Gene,
As far as I can tell they're still working on the models.
Nothing on FB or the website,

Hi all,
Latest from CSM,

Mike

----------------------------
We are pleased to share the final overall look of our upcoming 𝐍𝐢𝐞𝐮𝐩𝐨𝐫𝐭 𝟏𝟏 𝐢𝐧 𝟏/𝟑𝟐 scale model kit.
The 3D design phase is complete, and we are now starting the mold development process.

Here are some key details about the kit:
The kit will include at least 4 different Lewis machine gun mounts, including the rare Alkan synchronizer mount.
Early serial numbers of the Nieuport 11 had long panels covering the pilot's cockpit, while later serials (and Nieuport 16) had shorter panels.
Early Version: Long panels for early serial numbers
Late Version: Short panels for later serial numbers
Each version includes different hatch configurations. We've included the most distinctive ones, with some rare versions available as 3D-printed accessories.
We're focused on delivering high quality and accuracy with our Nieuport line.

Thanks, Mike. I have no idea of how long it takes to go from mold development to production, but have hopes it won't be "too long".  8)
