Japan Seat Belts WWII type 2 (3D Decals) Scale 1:48 Metallic Details MDP48008 - For Model Kits Aircraft

Metallic Details MDP48008 is a 3D Decals set for Japan Seat Belts WWII Type 2 in 1/48. The practical benefit is cockpit definition: the raised belt and buckle relief stays visible through the canopy and helps the seat area look “occupied” without adding photo-etched parts.

Attention: seats are not included. The set includes only 3D Decals.

This set is intended for Japanese aircraft projects from the WWII period. Seat shapes and harness routing can vary by kit and seat style, so treat final placement as kit-dependent.

For modelers: paint the seat first and let it cure fully, then test-fit each belt piece dry to plan the drape and buckle position. Apply lap belts first, then shoulder straps, and nudge the belt edges into corners with a soft damp brush. Once everything is set, a light clear coat can help protect the belt edges during final cockpit assembly.
