I also got almost all parts to build it from the same guy. Not period stuff but will do for now to get it rolling. I think i will just touch up the paint for now.
Yes paint in general looks more than good enough and if you got parts with the frame then you might as well use them as you can always look out for what you actually want to use on it over time. I do that with a lot with my builds, if I don't have what I want I'll build it anyway as a proof of concept and then pick up what I actually want over time.
