From CSM facebook :

" Hansa-Brandenburg D.I Progress:
Thanks to the support of Chlo? Platner, we've been able to revise the engine cowling geometry and improve the engine detailing. The model will be significantly more accurate than the version we first showed in 2019 ? a major step forward that we?re truly excited about.
 We aim to launch the Hansa mould development by the end of this year, with a target price of 80-90 euros. If all goes well, it will be followed by other important Austro-Hungarian fighter aircraft".

Well, that's Christmas sorted. And more Austro Hungarian models, that's great news.

This is very good news. I'm really looking forward to an Hansa Brandenburg D.I made from "normal" plastic injection molding in CSM quality.
The information that further K.u.K. models may follow is also very welcome.

I really like the idea of AH aircraft getting the attention they deserve, though I would have liked it even more if it were my preferred scale of 1/48.  :(

Ach, I've just bought the Lukgraph one, assuming we'd get the Hanriot next from CSM. Never mind, the Lukgraph kit looks superbly well rendered - and you get a wee Austrian with it. A really nice touch.

Hi all,
Latest update from Copper State Models:

Mike


Exciting behind-the-scenes update!
Chloe Plattner is currently checking the accuracy of our Austro-Daimler engine for the (still in development and definitely not cancelled!) 1/32 Hansa-Brandenburg D.I.
She is building her own custom 1/24 scale version.
Wait till you see the book, which is currently in development, will be something out of this world!

Excellent news. I'm looking forward so much to this one and it sounds like CSM will be doing a fantastic job on it.
