Many thanks! This is extremely interesting, and will allow further speculation into the way and order in which the MS was composed.

What one sees most generally, is this order:
1. Figures drawn
2. Some of the painting (?), perhaps the more accurate part
3. Text written
4. More of the painting (?), perhaps the less accurate part

I think that "1 before 3" is mostly agreed by amateurs and specialists alike, but from reading about other manuscripts, to me even this is not necessarily a simple question.
Certainly, both orders can be found in other manuscripts, especially incomplete ones.

What seems incomplete in the Voynich MS is in fact the painting.
