Since the Slann is supposed to be as old (or older) than the Necron, it makes sense that some of their tech works the same way. Perhaps more focus on anti grav technology - even for larger machines like mechs and titans? They could have limbs, but rely more on them for manipulating objects rather than actually walking. I could imagine them looking rather like they are "swimming" through the air.
I thought about that too and to be fair the more i think about it the more i like the promise of it.

Instead of a traditional humanoid walker design, it might be interesting if the design was centered around a large head of sorts. A bit like the tripods from War of the Worlds (But definitely NOT a tripod!). I was experimenting borth with a cycloptic design and a Dogu head that looks a bit like Darth Stewie :p
Weapon placement would be vaguely like the Tau drone and between those, a small body with manipulators, like frog legs or something..
i would be a bit more carefull. just the heads could be very silly and walking weapons could easily look like tyranids in this scale. i actually made a mistake with my first sketch in being so near a real frog - shapewise.

...the Zentradi spaceships from Macross...
this is pretty much what i had in mind. It has good shaoes is more organic than eldar but without loosing the technology aspect completly. thank you for that.

Similar to that 'Cron vibe but with the spin of them being like ancient mezoamerican monuments
i thought about this a lor. they are both ancient very alien races and have both pyramid building cultures as there model. But unlike space marines and chaos spacemarines there not brothers or even the same race.
The difference between them is important. One a complete mechanical force representing death. THe other organical creating life.
The Slann have constructed races and are master of bioengineering. I think that should reflect in their army look.
better version of the picture later
