Could anyone provide info on 1/350 scale WW1 aircraft from Shapeways shop, Decapod Models. Are their planes nice, and do they pilots in the planes. And how would you rate their products. Future thanks.

just me to comment? :) They are all scaled down versions of my 1/144 range with adjustments for material thicknesses to make them printable by shapeways. Most of them have pilots (SE5a is an exception) The best way to see what you're getting is to click on the little 3D icon at the top of the shapeways image – that shows you what will actually be printed and lets you use the mouse to move around and zoom in. Originally made for icog.dk/ICOG/Main_page.html They all have small holes in the nose to fit the mounting used in the game. Cheers, Paul

I also have his 1/144 scale WW1 aircraft and I think they are excellent. But, the printers can mess them up.
