Global Scale Modeller

I'm doing a revell 1:24 scale F1 car and i have some spare 1:20 scale tamiya seat belts would they look too much out of place

Hmmm, maybe??
Try using some painted masking tape a smudge smaller width
Little tutorial about making them yourself, great demo of the wire for the buckles.
A thousand pardons for the source

How do those compare in size your 1/20 Tamiya's??

They are a lot thinner mate

I feel a bit dirty saying it but that was a very useful guide - I may try to make my own on my Stuka now. didn't realise it could be that straight forward. I do say that before even trying mind you.

Cheers

What's the problem with Flory models I thought it was a good site, have I missed something?
