Styrene Tips

Lately I have seen a lot of questions regarding what I would call general modelling techniques so I thought I would start putting together some of the tips, tricks and general ways that I work with styrene, paint and other modelling techniques in general. This video is a start on that new series.
There are many other videos out there regarding cutting, shaping and gluing styrene and you can see some of the the techniques in more detail in the build series for Project Expedition, just check the links in Episode 4 where we hand the body off to MrRCFanatik.

Hi there Mr. RC Culture! I'm a plastic modeler and happened to see your video. You mentioned a product you called "PCV drill bits". What is the full name for these tiny drill bits and where can I buy them?

[@Rcculture]

Jozsef Szadvari Search ebay for "pcb drill bit", you'll get lots of results.

[@jozsefszadvari8699]

Hi there, YES I found PCB drill bit sets. I misunderstood you. I thought you said PCV, not PCB. Thanks for the quick response!

Awesome video, how can I learn to make such models in styren?

[@lisapeters5554]

the best way to learn is get some inexpensive kits and start cutting and inventing and so on.
