About product

Mk-5 seat belts in 1:72 scale

A small accessory for the cockpit of an aircraft model. These are seat belts designated Mk-5, made by 3D printing in 1:72 scale. It is neither a kit nor a seat, but a set of belts that are fitted to a seat out of the box or to a resin replacement.

Why belts pay off

The seat is the first thing a viewer sees in an open cockpit. Kits tend to have the belts suggested only in shallow relief, or do not deal with them at all, and the seat then looks empty. Separately made belts have a thickness of their own, can be draped over the edge of the shell and left to hang loose, so the cockpit looks inhabited at once. In 1:72 scale this is one of the few touches that really shows once the canopy is closed.

Building and painting tips

  • Cut the parts off with a sharp blade a little away from the belt and sand the print mark down carefully.
  • Work with tweezers over a tray with a raised edge; a part this size is hard to find again.
  • Printed parts are not polystyrene, so liquid cement for plastic does not work on them; choose the glue and the way of fixing them according to the manufacturer's instructions.
  • Settle the belts before the last coat of varnish goes onto the seat, so that the transition does not show.

Who the set is for

For modelers who are building an aircraft in 1:72 scale with an open canopy and want the cockpit to hold up under a close look. Working with parts this small calls for tweezers and patience; a beginner should first try fitting them dry.

The package contains belts only. The seat, the cockpit, the kit, paints and glue are not included, unless stated otherwise.

FAQ

Seat belts in 1:72 scale only. The seat, the cockpit and the kit are not included; the belts are fitted to parts you already have.

Aircraft models in 1:72 scale regardless of the maker; what matters is the size of the seat, not the brand of the kit.

Printed parts are not polystyrene, so do not use liquid cement for plastic. Choose the glue and the way of fixing them according to the manufacturer's instructions.

The parts are very small and are fitted with tweezers. Try fitting them dry before you reach for the glue.
