About product

Sopwith Triplane – fabric seat belts 1:32 from HGW

An accessory set for finishing a cockpit, not a kit of the aircraft. The basis is straps of printed microtextile cut by laser, and photo-etched metal buckles go with them. The set is prepared for models of the British Sopwith Triplane fighter triplane in 1:32 scale.

Why it matters on an aircraft with an open cockpit

The Sopwith Triplane was a single-seat fighter of the First World War with an open pilot's position. On it the belts are visible from immediate range and from several sides, so a flat plastic or photo-etched strap is distracting. The fabric can be bent, twisted and thrown over the edge of the seat or the side of the fuselage the way real webbing would lie.

Procedure and tips

Take the part out of the sheet, remove the backing paper and work the strap between your fingers, so that it softens and loses its flatness. The ends are threaded through the buckles and fixed with a spot of cyanoacrylate. The fabric will take a fine wash with an oil or an enamel paint, which gives it weathering; on aircraft of this period the straps suit being toned toward leather and canvas shades. Tweezers and a new scalpel blade are all you need.

Who the set is for

  • Builders of First World War aircraft in large scales
  • Modelers with an open cockpit, where the interior is always in view
  • Those who want realistic straps without the labor of making them from foil
  • Anyone who works with tweezers and cyanoacrylate

This is not a model of the aircraft, but an accessory for the interior. The base kit, glue and paints are not included in the package.

FAQ

No. It is only a set of seat belts for a cockpit; the kit itself has to be bought separately.

The strap is threaded through a photo-etched buckle and secured with a small amount of cyanoacrylate. The belt is likewise glued into the cockpit in spots.

Yes. The fabric will take a fine wash or a filter, thanks to which the straps lose their newness and fit the interior better.

Photo-etched belts stay flat and hard. Fabric can be bent and left to fall loose, which looks truer in a large scale.
