If the shine bothers you, what about the fact it's Rickenbacker's N6159 with a cowling that's sorta Campbell's and wheel covers that Rick never had.
I think the camo pattern is pretty close, along with the colors. You could scour the surface with a Scotch Brite; or, shoot some Dull coat on it to dull the shine and it would look better. The size sort of fits with Great Planes series of small WW1 airplanes that must be fairly popular as they have 6 or so offering at this time.
I like it! I can easily get past the shine!
