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.
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…[Read more]
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…[Read more]

So here’s the rundown. Got my Z’Gok pretty much put together, as well as seam line removal done, except the torso. I am going to be picking up the LED and battery holder up this week so I can install that and then do seam line removal on the torso. I’m still debating on the color scheme, but in the mean time I will be putting some battle damage…[Read more]
I don’t know, wouldn’t that make it way out of proportion? In my experiences of kitbashing, you really need to plan it out and not just slap random parts together.
That is why I was leaning on going with a rider that the Zaku could stand on. It would be both quicker transportation and like a mobile weapon silo. Hmm, may just have to put the wings together and see how they look.
i say the rider is a good idea but i recommend slapping on some of the smaller armor parts from the epyon but it is important to keep it in scale and plan it out like what @striker0 said best of luck 🙂
As a guy that loves the older models (but I still need to take a break with them), they need a ton of work done to make them look good. All I can say is good luck and have fun with it.
Thanks. Right now im in a love/hate phase of the build. I think i have the problem figured out… and then reality strikes and back to the drawing board.
Still lots of fun. And some really good ideas for the improvement from the community.
it loads the pics but when i press post nothing happens. there is just a spinning circle on the post button. it looks like the pics are in the “Media” tab for the group thead but there is no post.
