Okay, here are the pictures I've taken of the turret ring. I'm also posting some pictures of what I did to the idlers in the Sherman Group Build.
These are the original DML idlers on the left., front and badk. As you can see, the back has no detail, in fact, it's completely hollow. Next is an Italeri (USMC Sherman) idler. They have detail (somewhat soft) on the front and back, but no center covers on the fronts, and big ejector pin marks on the back surfaces. Next are what was left after I turned down and split in half one of the Italeri Idlers.
Here they are with the Italeri centers inserted into the back of the DML idlers.
And one more time after painting.
I don't think they turned out too badly. Since they will be under the tank, they will probably pass all but a judges eye.
