Peter Hi Peter,
It is not question of way too much work, Its how much you want it.. With the "subject P-47," flown by Cap./Col. Robert S. Johnson,it starts with inspiration...I read his book researched his plane and decided to duplicate /replicate the finish. (he flew primarily four and the last was in natural Aluminum----suggest you read his book:"Thunderbolt!!' Martin Cadin and Robert S. Johnson. ALL military are hero's in sort;over the course of a year I read every Ballintin W.W.II pilots book I could find and "Thunderbolt," was one of them.
