I cut both the Turret and the Hull:

The respective Turret Ring Parts were mounted flush into the Upper Hull / Lower Turret parts after cutting the original Turret Ring out with the help of a Stencil.
Gaps between them were filled with micro sized glass beads and then Superglued ( after backing the rear with Masking Tape ) together.
