Model Making Materials

Expanded polystyrene sheets.

Polystyrene is a great model making material as it is cheap, easy and quick to work with. It is used in architectural and railway modelling to create hills and other topographical features.

• Sheet size: 300 x 300mm
• Sheet thickness: various (see drop down box).
• Can be cut and sculpted with a hot wire cutter.
• Glue with UHU Por or PVA.

Use Habitat Cast N Coat (mixed with folding powder) to coat items made from this foam to create lightweight - yet robust and flame retardant- theatre and display props.
