Very nice start, Isaac, and glad to see you enjoy the build.
I will follow with great interest your detailed reports and pictures.
It will be very interesting to compare this model with the other ones of the Mystere IV you have.

This seems indeed over complex. hopefully this one will be better designed than the me262
For the colours, well, it's always a little darker or lighter, etc.. anyway what's would be the 'right' one ? I think halinski or gpm still offer the better ones.

A good start and beautiful
It seems a bit complicated but it appears that you are doing fine!
Good luck .

for general knowledge:
This plane (# 44) was shot down over Egypt on 04/06/70 while attacking ground targets.
the pilot was lightly injured in the ejection.

Great images, Isaac.

I especially like the P-59, but they are all classics.

Here are the forward fuselage internal structure. Added the nose gear bay




And the rest of the internal frames sub assemblies. They will be cut down for ease of assembly.
