Over the next few days I'm going to be painting the 1/300th scale 3D printed aircraft for the Lard Day in January, including five Sopwith Camels and five Albatros DVa scouts. I'm starting with the Camels as they are a more straightforward paint job and will enable me to work out the best way to go about painting the resin prints. I've painted plenty of 1/300th aircraft before, so it shouldn't be too tricky, even if I'm used to metal models rather than resin ones.
The models look wonderful. I have always felt put off metal WW1 aircraft at this scale because the designs appear cruder, particularly the undercarriage and the lack of interplane struts.
