I bet it also has 2 void shields due to the dome thingy on the back hull. Found this so I was close. a pair of macro-accelerator cannons sponson-mounted las-rippers or plasma eradicators. rear mounted storm bolter void shields an enhanced repulsor field (anti-flyer rules) No Transport Capacity Steel Behemoth rule Power of the Machine Spirit and more!

I actually think it's a wonderful model...for Infinity. It looks like great sci-fi, but not at all 40K, at least to me.

i dont find it very 40k-ish, but to be fair if it was a unit in an RTS id probably say it was cool. could see if swooshing around in sup com looks like is shoul have transport though. also looks like a fire raptor with boxes on the side

It's not objectively awful and certainly not a technically bad sculpt, but compared to the gothic architecture and dystopian horror of earlier artwork (that oldnerds like I probably got drawn in by) it's a really obvious divergence that feels like it's diluting the unique setting that GW established with "generic swooshy tank #5". Thus, speaking from that PoV, as a Space Marine tank it's just a generic sort of bad.

I love the Vanguard tank, while I think that that one is just nice. I think the problem is that when you look at the Ultramarines painted version it looks incredibly drab and monchrome, which is very much at odds with the non-gothic sci-fi style of the tank.

So that leads me to ask is the painting the issue or the tank?

The UM one isn't especially wonderfully painted. Needs some more highlighting and shading, but hey, it's also a huge model so that'd take a long while.

Was going to say - I would add some claws to the front to help it climb up walls, otherwise brilliant!
