Nice work on the lights and engines! Having no knowledge of this aircraft, I'm really looking forward to seeing the paint scheme.
 
may 1940 general Pinsard wrote:" because they are similar to Ms 110, the night fighter Po63 were often attacked by friend fighters...to prevent a friendly fire it was recommended to paint one large white stripe on each fuselage side and oversized the fuselage roundel + 5 cm white outline"
 
Another weekend and another push toward completion. Did more research into the 631 and found a few more references, thanks waroff for the information. I found information confirming what you were telling me. Here is the directions for the plane I plan to paint. I have not found anywhere examples of this color scheme and I have found the directions faulty. Still I like this set up and will try to do this.
Started painting with an under coat / priming of white. The light color will brighten the red and yellow somewhat before I dull them down.



 
Currently working on the landing gear. Seems like a complicated affair. Had to scratch build some of the componants. Photos to follow a little later. Thsnks for the support guys.
 
gooooddddd very good job i love this plane but the version of Armée de l'air but it would be of which were destined for the war in Thailand and France in 1941
