Outstanding!
The detail on the trough jet exhausts alone is incredibly impressive. Also, seeing it without its ruddervators was disturbing, LOL. Adding them really makes for jet porn like no other. I just wish we actually built/bought the thing. Greatest fighter never produced! Looks futuristic, even today. God I hope the PCA/Sixth Gen is based on this design, it would seem to have everything they're looking for. Especially range/payload, speed and super-stealth..

The engine troughs and tiles are outstanding!
The rest of it isn't bad either How long does building a model like this take you? Just curious...

Hell of a job! Like the cockpit attention to detail, even before you completed the YF-23 Black Widow model. And as sprstdlyscottsmn already pointed out - outstanding forced perspective shots framing the YF-23 model. Very, very well done - thanks for posting these for everyone to enjoy.
Curious as to what the "base" model is, and how long it took you to complete this....

Outstanding work! The model looks very realistic and like the prospective of the photos taken which adds realism.
I'm watching...

If only we had built say, 150 of them..
Can you imagine? 150 combat coded Raptors and F-23's. Now THAT would be air dominance!
