Soviet Douglas A-20G "Boston"

[Serg3t]

Hello!
I am starting a testbuild of self-repainted Douglas A-20G.
The initial templates are LadNDad's "Boston" MkIII
Here is the result of the first day building.
This is the airplane of the commander of the 51-st aviation regiment of the Red Banner Baltic Fleet I.F.Orlenko, as it was in the 1945.

You're a fast builder. Looks promising!

[Serg3t]

Fast, but not tidy :-)
The turret's templates are from John Dell's B-17 (Fiddlers Green) - I just asked John's permittion to use it in the final edition.

Hi Serg3t, I just sent you a PM but I’ll also reply here.

I did not design the Fiddlers Green B-17G. I did the Boeing Model 299 (B-17 prototype) kit. You should contact Fiddlers Green.

The kit looks nice. It is a very interesting subject. I look forward to seeing how it turns out.

Take care,
John

Thanks for the information, John, I wrote to Chip Fyn.
So here is the today's building photos.
I ended the fuselage and built the tail surfaces.

After that I made the wings frame

And then the wings

Also I want to show the mistake I made in the first stage of building (thanks Spector777 for noticing me about it).
