Hi Lance...
With your skills, these would be different, but turn out great. Kind of a mash of balsa flying models (to me) and plastic. Really the only thing I don't like is also what happens to make this particular model so cool...the renderings. Meaning that all the models will look the same and I enjoy the painting weathering aspect of modeling a lot. However, this one sure is neat. Plus, I guess at a contest the field would be super level as all you'd be looking at is construction since every paint chip, panel line and scuff would be identical between models. So maybe this is a plus!!
Not to mention, you can sure airbrush these to your heart's content and even get rid of the renderings entirely with a coat of primer and have at it. I like paper models because they provide models of planes I like but that are not out there or too pricey for me. I did hear about a lovely resin D-1 to the tune of $220. Just too much especially when my paper model cost me $7 to download and another $1.50 to print at Office Depot.
I did just order a couple of neat WWI subjects in paper...a Halberstatd D-II/III and a Friedrichschaffen twin float plane I saw parts of in Denmark. Can't wait to start those...stay tuned.
I have no affiliation with this site, but here are a bunch of possibilities for downloads:

Thanks for the kind words...Dan
