Seconding this. Why is this artwork considered a hint towards multiple J-36 prototypes beyond the two that we have already seen?

His Weibo post was removed earlier and re-uploaded 19 minutes ago.. Some legitimacy perhaps?
He could be just deleting it himself, hardly a proof of legitimacy
I believe he also stated that there are static test airframes, which is likely to have been included in the count.
I'm not saying that the J-36 illustrated with caret intakes and parallel main undercarriage wheels is the one depicted outside the hangars, though.
Well, the point that he makes such a noise - and therefore raises expectations - and the explains it with "there are static test airframes" is actually lame since everyone knows this!
