1/48 F-23 “in service”?

Hobby Boss 1/48 YF 23 impulse buy and 2 week to build. It’s a great kit, very good fit. Great subject matter (just my opinion) I must have 7 different shades of grey on it, I used a mix of Tamiya acrylics, Vallejo and Alclad lacquers. Decals are a very old Micro Scale set of 1/72 F 18 markings and Kinetic 1/32 Hawk, the only kit decal used was the in-flight refueling guide. Some of the decals disappeared into the grey paint.

Very slick! Nice looking model also. Wonder what it would look like in a yellow wing retro scheme :rotf
 
yes...or bare metal? hmmm I guess not, not much "metal" on it is there? Gloss black Playboy scheme? It already looks like it's from another planet so why not have fun with the paint too hey?
