A gunsight housing 1:35 for the M48A1, M48A2, Magach 1 and Magach 2 is a resin detail part that replaces the simplified component from a plastic kit.
Responsibility details are not available.
A resin detail part in 1:35 scale from the manufacturer Elefant. It is not a vehicle kit but a standalone accessory to be substituted for the corresponding component of a plastic kit. The gunsight housing is an external element on the turret which in plastic usually comes out as a simplified shape without crisp edges and without worked-out surroundings to the aperture. The resin casting offers a crisper outline and more legible detail in a place that almost everyone looks at on a finished model.
The key to a good result is preparing the mating surface. Cut the original plastic molding off and level the area on the turret flat with fine abrasive on a hard surface, so that the new part does not sit askew. Try the resin casting dry, sand any remains of the casting block back and offer it up again. Only once the part sits without rocking and without a gap should you move on to gluing. Cyanoacrylate glue gives only a short time for correction, the gel type a little longer; an alternative is a slow-setting two-part epoxy, which lets you turn the part calmly into the right position relative to the gun.
Before gluing, wash the part in warm water with detergent to remove the mold release agent. Apply a thin primer, paint it together with the turret and at the end bring out the seam around the housing with a dark wash. A small highlight on the glass of the aperture can be given by a gloss clear varnish.
The accessory is supplied unassembled and unpainted. Glue, paints and the base kit are not included in the package.
