Nick, I’m surprised that you haven’t had a response from the 1:100 builders! I make 1/72 scale aircraft, mostly WW1. I would say 90 - 100 gsm would be about right. My card of choice at the moment is Tesco’s GoCreate card. It doesn’t delaminate easily, is very smooth, and accessible! Sainsbury’s do a similar product. Neither give the weight but my guess is about 90.
For details like engine cylinders I just use copy paper.
You don’t say how experienced you are, so you may know all this already, if so, apologies. Good luck with your modelling, Bailey
