I'll second the watercolor pencils. Ihey are the best thing I've found for coloring edges. I have a set of 12 Prismacolors that have worked for 99% of the edges I've colored.

For scoring, I use an old Xacto #11 blade that I have ground the edge off of. I gave it its own handle to avoid "incidents". It follows a metal straightedge perfectly & easily.

I also highly recommend an NT Cutter iC-1500P circle cutter. I haven't found anything that is even close to its speed, accuracy and ease of use for cutting circles. It is very easy to adjust for cutting perfectly sized formers for tubes. It makes my rockets round! I ordered mine from Japan, but it may be available elsewhere.

Welcome to an excellent and interesting hobby. There is a great community of folks here to help.
