Spare road wheels with anchor points for the M88 recovery vehicle in 1:35 scale from the ELEFANT brand. An accessory to a plastic kit, which adds the wheels carried on the hull of the vehicle.
Responsibility details are not available.
This item is not a kit of the vehicle but a small accessory set of castings. It contains spare road wheels rendered with their anchor points as well, that is, the way spare wheels are carried fastened to the hull of the real vehicle. It is exactly these details that decide whether a model looks like a machine in the field or like equipment purely on display.
The M88 is an American armored recovery vehicle built on the components of the M48 tank. It serves to tow, recover and repair tracked equipment right at the unit, and it is equipped with a crane boom, a winch and a bracing spade. Recovery vehicles belong among the equipment that is worn by use more than combat machines are, and spare parts, spare wheels among them, tend to be stowed on the superstructure itself.
Wash the castings in warm soapy water to rid them of mold release. Cut off the casting blocks and sand the surface with respiratory protection. They are bonded with super glue. Spare wheels look best when they are painted a little differently from the wheels on the vehicle, usually a shade cleaner or, on the contrary, with a heavier deposit of dust, depending on whether they are meant to look freshly loaded or long carried. At the end a dark wash into the recesses and a dry brush along the edges will help.
The accessory is supplied unassembled and unpainted. The kit, glue and paints are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.
