    Copper state models

    Does anyone have any experience with CSM?

    it doesn’t look like a lot of people stock it in the UK apart from Hannants, I’ve got a delivery due in Monday, they will be considerably cheaper than Hannants

    Not tried them, but do think they have some interesting subjects.

      Definitely some unusual WW1 subjects. Who else does a dispatch rider with a basket of pigeons!

        Fellow modelers in my neighbourhood have given good reviews. They say the fit is really good...like WingNuts but ground vehicles. They also say its easy to put together and very detailed for price paid. Surprised the UK has only Hannants stocking it. It's another whole genre if you're into WW1. My friends have bought every kit they could get their hands on.

        Cheers,

                    It is.1:48 scale and CS even supply you with PE rigging attachment points, a really nice touch.

                      I have looked at their kits, and I am really tempted by their subjects.

                        Get them Scottie, with your PE skills you'll make gems out of them.
                        There is another brand you might like called Thunder Models. I got the Morris with the Bofors AA gun. Loads of small parts that you needn't add more PE for detailing.
