Intermediate Modeler – Modeling Competition 2013 9 years, 3 months ago Perhaps the “thirds time the charm” will hold true for this.
Got my hands on another kit, a old school kit, and the ideas are just flowing with this one.
This is the 1/144 NG YMS-09 Prototype Dom from the Gundam MSV line. I’m not going to reveal what I’m going to do just yet, mostly because I need to see if I’ll be able to pull it off first.

are you gonna kit-bashing with HGUC Dom?
Nope. I’m in the process of modifying some of the joints with leftover kotobukiya polycaps to update the model somewhat, as well as other things.
Doing the same build. To be honest some parts of this kit are real pain in the ***.
Dont be lazy like ma and be sure to replace knee joints. Ill post the update photo of my build (basically bottom half) later today.
PS. Look out for the bazooka holder part. The plastic is ultra brittle. The part broken on my kit after putting the bazooka in it for the 3rd time.
At this point, I’m not too sure if I would be able to make new knee joints, but I will probably modify the lower leg to give it more of a bend. I did that with another model a while back and it worked out nicely.
Truthfully, I’m not too sure if I am going to be using the bazooka. I have a couple other ideas floating around in my head. for this project for accessories.
