yes, i worked with an acetat resistant foamsheet, 35kg each m3 so it is strong enough to make a buck, and soft enough to work with hand, and resistand enough to can use aceton, polyester-resin, and all other boddy material

if you look at " sika-block-material", you can find a lot about this modell-block-material, and if you dont make a full material buck, it is not so expensive

i make prototype-car bumpers and some motocycle fuel tanks with this modell-block´s, easy to work, easy to repair, easy to shape, easy to make a mould with this
