1:48 Lozeng rib tapes for Pfalz DIII-DIIIa (All kits)

Quinta Studio lozenge rib tapes Pfalz D.III / D.IIIa 1:48

An aftermarket set of 3D printed decal tapes (rib tapes) from the manufacturer Quinta Studio. They imitate the fabric tapes with the period lozenge camouflage pattern that covered the seams of the fabric covering over the ribs on the real aircraft. The set is universal for models of the German Pfalz D.III and D.IIIa fighter of the First World War in 1:48 scale.

The real subject

The Pfalz D.III was a German fighter biplane of the First World War. The fabric covering of the wings often carried the multicolored printed lozenge camouflage pattern, and the tapes over the ribs were a characteristic element of it that lends a model its scale fidelity.

Use

• Place the tapes precisely along the lines of the ribs on the upper and the lower surface of the wings.
• Apply them as a waterslide decal and take care to keep them parallel with the ribs.
• Even the surface out with a matte varnish to match the rest of the covering.

Who the set is for

• Builders of Pfalz D.III and D.IIIa aircraft in 1:48.
• Modelers who want faithful rib tapes without painting by hand.
• Fans of First World War aircraft.

This is not a model but a decal accessory. The kit and paints are not included in the package.
