As I have the big 1/32 A20 now this is going to be needed info. For some reason I never thought that there were that many different sized oxygen cylinders.

Wreaking Havoc 1: A-20B 41-3266(?) Outhouse Mouse with a Sharkmouth

You lucked out as the oxygen cylinders were moved out of the gunner's compartment to the upper bomb bay walls flanking the extra fuel tanks. They wouldn't be visible from the A-20G on. Hong Kong Models may release a Boston in 32nd scale, then it is visible but I don't know if they used the European high pressure oxygen system or the low pressure US one which I have been documenting.

And I just made a trailer hitch for my M-46 out of a Tony tailwheel. Go figure. Gary S.
As Shep Paine would state, Gizmology! Perfect if they look the part and you're satisfied with it!

Photos to follow as the wings had their running light locations added and the starboard landing light filled.

Not forgotten! I did some work so I need to take photographs. I was lucky enough to find the very rare Koster Aero Enterprises A-20 Havoc detail set on evilBay. It will save me some work and provide duplicates for... 'just in case' scenarios.
I also decided to take a chance and replace the optically flat windows on the nose and leave them clear. This means detailing the interior of the nose but now I have white metal guns to help, along with the interior, to keep it from being a tail dragger.

The aforementioned detail set from Koster Aero Enterprises! Some parts will make it to other builds.
Resin antennas? Better off with resin mounts with brass rods maybe. Looks like that's where it's going to end up.
While I got the brass rods, I don't need them for any of my builds. Up for grabs by anyone. I will even drill them for you and include the brass rods pre-cut for you to assemble (so I can send unassembled in a bag and use my stamps). White metal gun barrels too... Although,
, they might add weight... At least I will keep the bodies and replace the barrels... No clue yet.Similar threads
