The dings in the slat armour are great! 8)

Be brilliant when it's finished! :smiley:

Hello,
Now the AGM is almost finished. The basis is a scrap Leopard 2 that I had decolorized and added missing parts. I had already written about the turret.

The cannon is now glued on
@Didi/MarderMan - is that 155mm turret the same as the one that was also seen on a modified MLRS vehicle?

I had compared many pictures of the AGM tower on Donar and MLRS. I believe they were the same as this one on Leopard 2. But the one on the Boxer RCH 155 is different

Hello,
This is from the anniversary event 2019 in Munich. A model with plenty of good and bad leftovers. The lower hull and parts of the skirts are again from discolored scrap. I once got the upper hull from Revell, which was about 20 years ago. The turret is from the old ESCI model. Restored up with parts from Revell and HB. Paint? Let's see, I have other things to do in real life at the moment.

Your junkyard builds are awesome.
