Looks good!  I can't help but think it would like quite striking if crossed with a Ro.58 kit as the fuselages look similar except the Ro.58 is single-tailed.

Talk about out of the gate with a flourish!

I really like the color you're using on top.

 Ro.57 / 58 is definitely another beautiful aircraft.

Wow! :-*
(As a pacifist, I do not like guns but...) the canopies give this model a great look. :-*

The final color (brownish pink?) is surprising, and the result is very nice, congratulations! :-*
