Rifle slings 1:35

Welcome to the Forum.

Haven't done 1/35 in years, but I'd think you could use strips cut from aluminum foil or tape or similar material.

My  worth.  I use regular masking tape cut into fine strips for seat belts on planes.  I'm sure rifle slings could be done the same way buy cutting the tape to size on a sheet of glass with a new #11 blade.  Before removing the tape from the glass, paint the tape the color you need.  Carefully lift up on the tape with the tip of the #11 and mount the tape in place.  Hope that this helps.

I save the thick foil off of wine bottles and use that stuff for slings and straps and such. I cut it into nice long thin strips with a sharp pair of scissors and paint that stuff in the various colors that I use, green, brown, tan, etc. then when I need some, I cut off a strip in the appropriate length and color needed and attach w/CA glue. I am sure that there are plenty more methods around to replicate such stuff...

I'm with stik on that.  he foil is best because you can pose it in very natural position and it stays there.
