Extruded XPS foam (Styrofoam) – modelling material for dioramas, terrain and scenery building
Extruded polystyrene foam (XPS), commonly known as Styrofoam, is a widely used material in modelling, wargaming and diorama construction. Lightweight yet rigid and durable, it is ideal for building terrain, scenery elements and structural components. Its closed-cell structure provides good moisture resistance and thermal insulation, making it a reliable base material for a wide range of hobby projects.
XPS foam is highly versatile and easy to shape, allowing hobbyists to create hills, ruins, buildings, textured bases or even full gaming boards. It can be worked with various tools depending on the desired level of detail. Hot wire cutters and heated blades are ideal for precise sculpting, while hobby knives, saws and standard blades are suitable for cutting and detailing larger or simpler shapes.
Specifications:
This material is perfect for hobbyists looking to build custom and realistic environments while maintaining ease of handling and shaping. It serves as a flexible foundation for projects ranging from small scenic bases to full gaming tables.
Safety notice: XPS foam may release toxic fumes when heated, heavily sanded, or cut with thermal tools. Always work in a well-ventilated area and wear an appropriate protective mask. Maximum safe operating temperature is 75°C.
