I've built models for going on 50+ years, but have no experience with 3D printed models. I'm debating whether to pick up a model from Reduced Aircraft Factory, but I don't know what I'd be getting as far as model quality and/or what I'd need to do to finish the model. It's my understanding the cheapest material (Natural Versatile Plastic) is very rough and requires a significant amount of sanding to smooth out the surfaces prior to painting. Next up the ladder is Multi-Jet Fusion Plastic. How does that material compare to the NVP? Last is Fine Detail Plastic, but those models are almost three times the cost. Are models made with FDP significantly better quality than the other media? In other words, are they worth the added expense? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
