Odd for me, anyway, I normally go for planes with floats and propellers!

Early jets put the fun in funky! Wasn't there an experimental German early jet with a similar profile? There's something familiar in the shape of this one. Looking forward to your build!

That is a Yak-3 aircraft fitted with a Jumo 004 engine from the Messerschmitt Me-262 Russ. 

You can see the similarity of the air intake on a photo of a 262:

Here we are with two during the build, one without the canopy and one with it test fitted.
