Very nice work. You picked up all the kit problems to make a correct M108. Great job on the decals....I presume they are custom??

Impressive

Rounds Complete!!

Hi Mike! Your M108 was the inspiration!

I didn't picked up all the kit problems, but just the most visibles

The decals are from Electric Productions (Stars and Numbers), but the the registration number was made number by number to make a especifc vehicle.

Regards.

Thanks Mike, but I'm a little discouraged with this M109.

I will probably build another M108 to relax while I think of what to do with the M109.
