I discovered a new technique to make PE seat belts look more like cloth!
Just follow these simple steps:
After the second round of bending you will find that all the original bends that you tried so hard to flatten out (but couldn't quite get rid of), actually help sell the illusion of cloth! Yay!
Look at those lovely tiny "waves" in the seat belt!
NOTE: I do not in any way endorse the use of this "technique!"I'm just poking fun at my own stupidity.
Cheers,Mark
P.S. I can't believe that no paint chipped off that belt. It really got a workout and stood up to it.

Ha! Accidental discovery. Looks really good Mark.
Thanks,

Yeah I can’t believe you didn’t lose any paint either. But the overall effect is really realistic!

Looks good, Mark. Funny post.
I will be the third to express surprise at no paint pulling up.
From failure you reaped success. My screwups just stay screwed up and taunt me, but I do enjoy the drinking part you mentioned.

Patrick, you took the words out of my mouth. then . Quite a few great things have been discovered by accident.

I keep hitting "escape", but I'm still here.

They came painted, as part of the Eduard Fw-190 A-4 ProfiPack kit. It's one of the reasons I'm so surprised the paint didn't crack and fall off, because other Eduard PE sets have had that problem, at least in my experience.
Funny, but you may be on to something. That belt looks good. It will be interesting to see what the other belt looks like if you follow a differen procedure.
