RichieW Posted April 17, 2021 Share Posted April 17, 2021 Copper State Models are releasing a 1/32 Bristol Scout this year. No release date yet. Hopefully I can finish my crude scratch built attempt before it comes out. 😅 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigbadbadge Posted April 18, 2021 Share Posted April 18, 2021 It's always the way Richie, when someone scratches a model of a type, you can bet your bottom dollar that a manufacturer will announce one!!! Chris 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ted Posted April 19, 2021 Share Posted April 19, 2021 This is great news. I collected a bunch of plans to scratchbuild one but chickened out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dov Posted April 21, 2021 Share Posted April 21, 2021 Are you sure? Since I remember some types like Hansa Brandenburg...as WNW stopped this partikular kit, Cooper State also? So maybe this time again? No great hopes. Roden is more likely to release new kits? Happy modelling Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harold55 Posted April 24, 2021 Share Posted April 24, 2021 You should post this to the rumormonger section, this is going to come as great news to so many of us! CSM has been doing a great job and in my mind they are actually a cut above WNW.

JohnT Posted April 24, 2021 Share Posted April 24, 2021 At last  .  A Bristol Scout is well overdue. Looks like the modelling Gods have been supplicated by Ritchies temple offerings of a scratch built one. We are all grateful to him.  Now how about a 1/32 BE2? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RichieW Posted April 24, 2021 Author Share Posted April 24, 2021 Haha, John I was wondering if I could trick the modelling Gods into producing a BE2c by attempting 'starting' a scratch build. I fear I may bring the curse of the carpet monster on myself. 😂 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dov Posted April 24, 2021 Share Posted April 24, 2021 Oh no, you know what building such a monster is? I do. Do you think that the modelling community would be ready to bear it? This a/c, the BE2c & BE12b is a monster to build. I did it in 48 twice and in 32 with her aunt, the RE.8. But it will not happen. Look at my WIP from RE.8 and you can find out what I am talking about! Look at my RIP at my BE.2c and look what I am talking about! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RichieW Posted August 11, 2021 Author Share Posted August 11, 2021 I heard directly from David Bremner who is the owner, builder and pilot of Bristol Scout 1264 that Copperstate models are working with him on the development of the 1/32 Bristol Scout kit. So it is no mere rumour. 😃  Richie 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps the God's of modelling will get a little nudge. Then again, this doesn't look like it's going the distance!😂 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
