Is it practical for creating blades for models?

[solidzakuvian]

@EmperorBass Very much so. It 'gives' as much as GW plastic, but it doesn't retain a bent shape. Also, it files and shaves very easily if you're looking to go for realsharp. The only trick is converting handles and pommels to look right with the thinnish blades. What you may end up doing is using two layers of the stuff and just GS'ing the line that separates them.

@Beaumont91 Indeed. Buying styrene here in a hobby shop is crazy expensive.
