Lost poly caps. Scratch build?

Post by Skat »

Hey guys,

I've started to build a IS-3M from Trumpeter, but unfortunately, I don't know how I managed to loose the poly caps sprue. Any ideeas if I can still assemble the wheels without them? Or any ideas how I can scratch build some?

Cheers!
Chris

Haven't built the kit so I'm not sure but usually with AFV kits the poly caps are just used to enable the items to be removed and placed back on easily so gluing the parts as normal should be fine otherwise fill the recess and glue together.
