It fires for approximately 2 seconds, then seems to cool.

So, what do I want?
A multipiece Epic scale Adeptus weapon that is suitable for molding and casting in resin.
The terms are - unlimited casting for my own gaming and collecting purposes. No trading or selling without express permission of the sculptor. Sculptor gets 3 copies, plus compensation to be negotiated.
The weapon seems to be towed. To fit in with the Ordinatus scheme, we can use a standard control module/hauler and Ordinatus crawler, so the work will be in the base unit, weapon arm, and emitter.
The weapon arm should be modifiable by filing or cutting to allow for different elevations on different models. The housing should be 'pegged' to allow for assembly in different rotations.
Overall size and mass should be comparable to an Ordinatus Armageddon, plus or minus 25%.
Later in the week I will look for additional source material; possibly a better compression of the movie allowing for higher resolution.
People assisting with source material will earn a 'finder's fee' of free casts or such.

Within the movie, the weapon is towed in batteries of at least 2. They are shorter ranged than the larger artillery, but seem to cause the most pain to Megalon, who ducks below a tree line to evade them. The weapons' discharges scythe effortlessly through 'huge' trees and stay on target. They are the first to be destroyed by the monster.
In physics terms, I think the target is first 'lit' by a weak ion weapon, and the large weapon arcs lightning (or some other charged blue plasma) to the charged target.

I know, crude and childish, but first loves never run dry.

I think this would look really cool as an epic mini.

Thanks for the kind words.
Note the thingies hanging from the emitter. Grounding cables? Sure. Grounding cables. I'm the boss of this here Ordinatus, and I say grounding cables.

Bound to be cheaper than trying to commission one.

Is also looks like my poo. Shiny, hard, silvery, and jagged.
But seriously, it's the wrong scale, material, and level of detail.

Oh can you post a scale pic of the adeptus model you are talking about. Those guys cost to much on ebay, just to pick up for this.
How about a ruler/quarter/leman russ next to it. Different angles too.

Good find, Con ! There are some things there that would make good Epic Dropships ... Too bad that model is the wrong scale, etc., O-man ... thats a nice piece ... as are some of the others !
