Sopwith 1½ Strutter N5106 (full color)

This is a full-color 3D print of Sopwith 1½ Strutter N5106 of Flight Sub-Lt. Joseph S.T. Fall of 3 Naval Wing, RNAS.   N5106 was also flown by C.E. Burden on the 25 Feb 1917 raid on Brebach.  Canadian Joe Fall went on to score a remarkable thirty-six air victories after moving on to Sopwith Pups and Camels.  He also served in WWII as a Wing Commander and Group Captain.

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:SopStr-N5106-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" choice means the prints are spray-coated in the factory, and the difference with the coating 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).
