I'm yet to work with any Finecast models, or any other resin for that matter, but I'm interested in doing some light weapon swapping on the Mk2 Veterans to create a command squad with the gear I want it to have.

I'm just wondering what sort of differences there are making significant cuts in Finecast as compared to plastic, is it harder or softer? Is it more prone the snapping?

If anyone could give me a rough idea of what to expect that would be good.

It's softer and more prone to snapping. But much easier to work with than metal.

One thing to be careful of, and I mean careful, I've done it a few times today myself already, is that when you're cutting through, sometimes the knife will hit an air bubble, slip wildly and you'll stab/slice you. It happens rarely, but when it does, it hurts.
