Some of us lack self control. I should definitely not look at inspiration threads when I already have so many projects planned. Well I found WWII space fighters.

Looks like a rockin' good start! I had seen the Corsair riff before, but the Spitfire Mk 0MG is  new one, and a doozy.
I like the outsize rudder -reminds me a little of the Firebrand.

Good eye for adding parts that enhance character of build.  "Positive clutter" you might call it.
