1/48 Monogram Thunderbolt P-47D 'The Turtle'

Got this kit very cheap off a popular bidding site. Someone had started painting it and didn't do too bad of a job. So I though, why not just do it like a beginner modeler - painting only what needs to be painted and have fun with a '3 to 6 foot' shelf sitter! :-D No rush - well, most of my kits are like that now...
