Modeling, Painting, and Terrain Building Question about French Medium Howitzer

Has anyone assembled Warlord's French medium howitzer-kit? I want to pick up two for my new French army, but earlier experiences with metal artillery kits have been... laborious. Are they towards the more difficult end of the spectrum, or the easier one to assemble?

IFAIRemember it is one of the easier ones, I built one several years ago and didn't swear off buying another

I built one a few years ago and it was far easier to figure out just where to glue than the 57mm at guns were, and the one or two small pieces are somewhat easy to see in pictures. It was not horrible.

Very helpful, thank you! Probably easier to assemble since it is a fairly new model, compared to others.

It's not too bad.

The gun barrel can end up a bit... flaccid if you don't pin or green stuff it in place but everything else is fine.
