I hope this is the right place to post and ask about this.

So I recently picked up a Finemolds 1/72 Scale X-wing Kit and I was just looking for some advice about putting it together. This is the first real model kit I have ever done, so what tools would be needed outside a brush and the correct paints?

Should I invest in any cutting tools or mat or am I getting a bit ahead of myself?

So yeah, any advice welcome :)
