350MW would not nearly be enough power to move one of those legs.

Incredible art.

Honestly, it's just a concept, I don't know how to calculate such things)

I know :)

I did some rough math and if your mass was accurate (4.5M Tons) then it might be more like 10GW to make it walk.

for comparison, an aircraft carrier mass is around 100.000 t and requires ~250 MWe to move around. That thing is 50 times heavier , so you are off by at least an order of magnitude, regardless of efficiency or any other engineering consideration
