Sopwith 1½ Strutter (1B1) of Sop66 (full color)

This is a full-color 3D print of a Sopwith 1B1 bomber (1½ Strutter) of Escadrille Sop 66.   Escadrille 66 started with Caudron G.4s in 1915 and graduated to the 1½ Strutter (in both 1A2 and 1B1 forms) in 1917.  Around October 1917 they upgraded to the Breguet 14.  The unit logo is a falcon in Egyptian style, designed by pilot and artist Jacques Rapin.

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-Sop66-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).
