Product Description
This is a full-color 1:144 3D print of the SPAD XIII of Lt. Maurice Jean-Paul Boyau of Escadrille Spa 77.  Boyau had 35 air victories, comprised of 15 aircraft and 20 observation balloons, ranking him as France's fifth-leading WWI ace.  He was killed in action just after destroying his 20th balloon on 16 Sep 1918.   His 1917-model SPAD 13 was built by Bleriot and featured escadrille emblems on the sides and top wing.

No painting is necessary -- this model comes printed in full color, ready to use.  It comes with an integral flight peg for mounting on game flight stands (not included), which can be carefully removed with a cutting tool, if desired.  The peg is designed for a fairly tight fit; you can file it down slightly if you prefer a looser fit.  The model does not come with a flight stand, maneuver deck, or plane card.  You can find an unofficial plane card for this plane in this paint scheme at https://linen.miraheze.org/wiki/File:S13-Boyau-card.jpg.

Material choice: High-Definition Full Color has a smoother, satiny surface and deeper colors; Full Color Nylon 12 (MJF) makes a less expensive alternative, with a rougher, matte surface and less deep blacks.  Both are robust materials and fine for gaming.   Attached here is a picture that shows the difference between the surfaces.  "Matte HDFC" and "Smooth FCN12" choices mean the prints are oversprayed in the factory, and the difference with the overspray is subtle.  You can find more material photos and comparisons at https://www.wingsofwar.org/forums/showthread.php?35581-Material-HDFC-vs-Full-Color-Nylon-12-(MJF).

If you are willing to prepare and paint models, you can find an inexpensive single-color print of a SPAD 13 at https://shpws.me/MExR or https://shpws.me/MExL.  Plane statistics and gaming information may be found at https://linen.miraheze.org/wiki/SPAD_13.   Please see this notice for information about fixing slight warping of Shapeways prints:  https://poeland.com/Shapeways/shapeways-warping.html.
