No, just the opposite. Resin kits are as a general rule
LESS user friendly than plastic kits.
There is a very wide range of quality available in resin kits. Some are produced by companies that produce consistently excellent kits (like MFH). Others are produced in very small runs by enthusiasts in their basements. Some are fantastic, and some are utter crap. And it's very hard to tell how a kit is going to be until you have it in hand.
Generally speaking, the skills required for resin kits are beyond those required for plastic. Resin kit makers design their kits with this expectation. Building plastic kits is the best way to learn them. If you're not comfortable with plastic, resin can be a complicated, expensive, and miserable experience. But if you're up for the challenge, they can be a lot of fun.
