Black Widow Infinity/Civil War Belt Kit

To celebrate the release of Avengers: Infinity War, I'm unleashing a wave of new Black Widow related items. Follow my profile to stay in the loop with newly posted models! As the first installment of this series, I'm releasing a comprehensive collection of items for the tactical belt. The most captivating aspect of this kit is the belt buckle, a fully functional quick-release buckle inspired by Black Widow's iconic belt in Civil War and Infinity War. It's a swift one hour print, and as it's a functional part, you don't have to be a cosplayer to create and wear one. Here's your chance to make and wear one when you catch the movie! I've created a short clip to demonstrate the buckle in action: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YDP1wmz_lnc I printed mine as two separate objects. Part A is actually three unconnected components, but you must print them together, as the individual parts would be impossible to assemble. It fits perfectly on a 38mm (1.5") tactical belt, although I suspect you may be able to scale it up and still make it work just fine. I wouldn't scale it down much, as it may stop working due to printer resolution issues. The belt wrappers can be added over a typical 38mm tactical belt to recreate the shiny/smooth surface seen in the films. I used black flexible filament from Hobbyking. The "S" model is simply there so you can test print settings without wasting too much filament. A typical adult full-size belt would require two "M" size prints (for top and bottom) and there's an "L" version that is slightly longer. The belt guides are held in place by the guides and tool pouches. These can be a tight fit, so if you have issues fitting them over your belt, try printing slightly larger or use some silicone spray lubricant (after painting and weathering though, because the silicone may cause issues with paint sticking to your printed parts).
