This is a nice little kit and an enjoyable build

It could be more detailed and more accurate and if you want that then the fairly new Hobbyboss 1/48 Osprey is the way to go. This model though was gifted to me while I was in hospital and for me the name of the game was to enjoy it and not worry about things like accuracy and extra detail. It was the modelling-medicine I needed after over 10 weeks in hospital.

As an early kit of this aircraft it represents a development bird so I only did some light weathering.

That looks great. A lovely clean build. As you say just what the doctor (pun intended) ordered. You've clearly lost none of your skills. Looking forward to the next kit on your bench.
 
Turned out into a lovely model Barry, great to read it helped you recover. Take care and looking forward to the next one, cheers
