I have (one of) the Lego set(s) that had those wheels.

How big is it?

Considering the Land Raiders parts, it looks to be about 70cm long.

Hmm,  i agree with MoK, could be  a lot better - for an independent build of an ordinatus, pretty good (didn't someone on bolter and chainsword make one almost identical to this a few years back?), for GW attempt, very poor. If the gun gets totally re-worked i might be more convinced, the front land raider based bit is good, the rest is awful...

I think i may also have some of those lego wheels :laugh:

I'm not very impressed I have to say, it's clearly big and has so taken a while, but it stands out where the separate bits are from and the aesthetics aren't great. It's definitely just a model some guy who happens to work at a GW store has made rather than anything official.

The gun is totally wrong for an Ordinatus Armageddon too, if he wanted to make an Ordinatus with a artillery like gun why not invent a new one?

The gun just isn't big enough to be ordinatus class

Maybe it's not the gun, but the ammunition...  :vD

A *spectacular* paint job might save it, but it looks a bit too "cobbled together" for my tastes.

I would be most interested in what E&C thinks a proper Ordinatus might should look like. Perhaps at sketch or 3D model might help me see how these things ought to look.

In my opinion, besides the problems mentioned above, the model also misses the point of what an ordinatus is supposed to be: a big gun on a barely sufficient chassis. I think an ordinatus should have more in common with this than with some generic big tank.

Now *THAT* would be a cool base for an Ordinatus.

Despite the EPIC models, I don't think there would be a standard "pattern" to the look of Ordinatus, at least not Majoris class ones.
