That's a great finish, and very nice weathering. I like the extra fuel cell as well. I certainly would love to see it on a diorama. There are a few mold seams that could use a little work. And perhaps you may want to paint the equilibrators bare metal for slightly less than their exposed length. It's hard to tell, but looks as the one on the right is, to small degree. Other than that, the only other thing I'd fix is the title. That's an M110, not an M110A1. The A1 has a longer barrel with no muzzle brake. I'm sure Gino would've caught that once he'd had his daily ration of coffee.

Oh wow! I didn't even register the title. Yup, it is a short-barreled M110. Looks like I need to fill my cup again. Off to the coffee pot.

No, the M110A1 had a longer, tapered barrel and no muzzle brake.


The M110A2 has a much longer barrel and the muzzle brake.


The model you have built is an M110 with the short, flared barrel.

excellent work you've done there, what issues did you have during the build?

Fantastic work on this artillery beast Vorya. The pale paintwork works very nicely with the weathering and dirt you've added. The figure also lends it a nice bit of scale. I must say though, the stowage is my favorite thing about this build- it gives the vehicle a great 'lived in' look- the cooler, the old radio, sports bag, mess equipment, the helmets and the comms equipment the figure is using along with his rifle. Very nice work.
