Styrene Sheets 0.4mm
Plusmodel from Czechoslovakia continues to add to its list of quality aftermarket and modeling supply products, this time with a package of two 0.4mm styrene sheets. The bright white sheets of plastic measure 110x190mm (about 7.5 by 4 inches – the size of a small notepad) and the 0.4mm thickness converts to about 16 thousandths of an inch (0.016).
The cards are a handy size and cut/scribe/snap easily for use in scratchbuilding and just about any other way you can think of using them. I personally find them the perfect thickness for creating support tabs for assembling those new heavy vacuform diorama bases being produced.
I recommend this Plusmodel product for any modeler who needs to use styrene sheet for his hobby.
I would like to thank Plusmodel for providing the sheets for review and IPMS USA for giving me the opportunity to try them.
