Fully Pre-Supported! Now includes FDM support!
The Ursus Major-Pattern Heavy Battle Tank is the bastard cousin of the more well known tank, featuring suites of techpriest 'sanctioned' modifications for it preform in many roles in dense urban environments and highly hazardous climates.
Mainly used in specialized and elite regiments, the Usus Major features a hermetically sealed hull and turret for total personal protection, considering how much more valued tank crews are to the regular infantrymen, allowing the tank to survive toxic worlds and even the vacuum of space during orbital drops.
With an accompanying techpriest, the Ursus-Major can hold a complement of extensive modifications, down to the placement of its individual stubbers and sponson weapons, allowing it to survive even combat in hive cities and trench warfare where arcs of fire can be life or death for a tank crew. Paired with it's smaller brethen, the Ursus-Minor-Pattern Main Battle Tank for support, it can dominate the battlefield with rapid bombardments from its Twin-Linked Cannons or hunt tanks with a well placed shot from its Obliterator Cannon.
This multi-part kit comes with a variety of weapon and attachment options, all of which are magnetized by 3x1mm & 5x2mm magnets, designed for resin printing in mind.
Model measures 170mm x 110mm x 85mm.
Features:
-2 different variations, reactive armor and a clean armor version for personal taste.
- Removable hatch for a tank commander.
- Remote CROWS style weapons system. Comes in single & twin-linked.
- Simple, easy to print push-to-fit design.
-Optional Gun Shield for turret,
-All weapons, sponson options, and turret accessories are fully magnetized.
- Matches size of similar tanks in wargames as a proxy.
- Turrets are cross compatible between the majority of my models, enabling you to switch them out for crazy kitbashing (IE, this turret can be put on the chassis of my Fenrir tank or Charon Apc and vise versa). This models hull is extremely large compared to the rest of my models, so this is mostly for meme purposes :P.
-Fully Pre-Supported. Make sure your exposure and settings are dialed into prevent failures or support scarring.
Update V2: Made a small adjustment to the Skirts and Hull Rear to fixed some clipping and graphical errors. Roadwheels were lifted slightly and a chamfer was recorrectly applied to the bottom of the hull. I have not updated the presupports just yet, so those are still the original files, but will as soon as I can. Reactive armor version remains unchanged as i'll need to reorient all the ERA plates. The changes are incredibly small and easily covered up by mod/weathering, but i wanted them to be at least accessible ASAP.
Update V3: Added presupported versions of the reactive armor skirts & turret.
Update V4: Thanks to the awesome Gemma Long, she is an absolute wizard at FDM printing, I can now offer files specifically designed and split for FDM printing. She's great enough to add a little guide in fine tuning your prints and instructions for this specific model. Incredibly informative too for 3D printing in general. If you have any questions, she's FDG here on MyMiniFactory and can be found on reddit as well. In the makes of this file, you can find a pic of her awesome work.
If you print this, please post it! I love to see people make my prints!

FDM printed, split everything in half, glued it, took a little bit of filing to get good fitment, but that’s probably poor calibration on my end. Gorgeous model.
