This is a Battlestar Galactica Cylon chest piece that was a vacuformed pulled. This was marked, scored with a box cutting knife, and the the excessive plastic was cut off, trimmed, and sanded. The photo taken while working on the piece didn't come out, but what I did was outline the area that was to be cut with the knife, and used the large cutting snips to then break away the area that I scored with the knife. I then sanded down the areas needing attention then used a 320 grit to give the area a fine finish. Start to finish it took about 45 minutes.
