I have a Tamiya hulix and I'm looking for a good product to fill for the holes. Any suggestions on what to use. First time working on a hard body. Thanks for your help.

Most putty, bonda or fillers will shrink and crack. Best solution is to back the holes with styrene if the are small or cut a filler piece for larger holes, then make a slurry/paste from styrene bits and fill the gaps with that. Bondene, weld-on 3, MEK, tanex, etc all work for solvent welding styrene which is what you will be doing with the above methods.
