I've decided to start my own titan legion (well everyone else has at least one).  The first two titans I'm going to get are a warlord and the FW reaver with three missile pods.

I'm planning on given the three missile pods to the warlord and give it a carapse landing pad.

My question is "would a SM landspeeder look to big perached on the top of a warlord?"

I want to convert one side of the warlords carapace into a hanger and landing pad, but I'm not sure if it will be big enough.

If you want a good size-feel for the warlord check here: http://www.ifelix.co.uk/phoepic10_1.html

Imperial Space Marines barely come up to their ankles (if that!) and given how wide they are compared to height I'd be surprised if a land speeder would look out of place.

IMO, the Epic Landspeeder will look large if mounted on the back of the present Warlord.

The two minis are not in scale to one another.  

But to be honest, I think it is up to you. If you like how it looks, then that is all that really matters.

As L4 says DWWFY! :cool:

Alas I don't think so.  I've only got the new stuff and a few odd and ends from the old plastics.  What I might do is use a land speeder as a bases and convert it to have an enclosed cockpit.

I agree with dafrca. Since landspeeder is not to scale with a warlord, especially a beetleback, it would look a little funny mounted on the carapce, imo.
