It’s a real shame to abandon this after all your work but there comes a point where it just stops being fun. This looks like that point!
I know you could fix it but why put yourself through it? So onwards and sideways to the stash for another is the right move IMHO buddy

Oh no….what a shame after all your hard work so far! like Steve says, if it’s stopped being enjoyable it’s time to move on…..still a shame though

Si, Steve, Tommy---thanks for the support, gents. Not to be defeated by the atrocious M270 kit, back in action with a West German M109A3GA1. If nothing else, I can give Paul B. flashbacks to the CENTAG sector of NATO.

As I have this one in my stash I do hope those problems occured only on your copy, so I won't run into the same problems..
Better luck with the M109... and fingers crossed, for my copy of this as well...

Shame about about the MLRS, but hey this happens to all of us. Nice replacement build you have there though, and a speedy start you've shown us too

Shame that but the 109 looks the bee's knees.

Thanks, Pete! It's been a great kit so far and filler free.

Them gaps are horrendous, don't blame you binning it.

Them gaps are horrendous, don't blame you binning it. Robbo, yes they were horrible! And even if filled it was still not going to look right. The M109 has been much more enjoyable.

Shame about the MLRS. Try one of Trumpeter in the future. They looks like far better than the old DML... Great start on the M109, one of my favorites SPGs.
