I used an old Duke Nukem pigcop for a pair of large hooves, but those are way too cost prohibitive now I think.

There was a "Yoda on Kybuck" figure (https://jedibusiness.com/figureDetails.aspx?id=1717&img=1) that I've used for large hooves, but again, don't know how easily those Kybucks are found on the secondary market and they'd need to be spliced with an existing foot for a proper joint.

I tried to articulate one of the Narnia Minotaurs years ago and ended up with a bunch of parts. This is brilliant and now I need to seek out another one of those Marvel figs you used as a base.

Ooooooohhhh . I always appreciate seeing monsters , mutants , beasts and robots in any scale. I could use something like this in my collection.

The orange figure that comes with the monster truck crossed my eyeballs recently. I may go back to Amazon (?) and pick one up.

I've been letting this one marinate for a bit while I decided what direction to continue in. In that time I received my AWOKs deluxe figures and I'm going to try to swap out the hands on this guy with one of the extra sets from one of the deluxe AWOK figures. I'd love to use the hoof feet from one of the AWOKs but they are too small to work with the thick legs of this base figure. Which is fine as I like the troll-ish look of the base figures feet. I'm skipping the tail as well. It just doesn't fit with the vision I have for him though I appreciate all the suggestions and help.

I have a 3 day weekend so I'm going to try to get the additional hair/fur sculpted on the back and hopefully make the AWOKs hands work. Pictures as they develop.

Added a hump and some back fur to this guy. Still a little fine detail sculpting to do but for the most part its done. I'm going to stick with these fists as the AWOK hands have a tiny wrist peg in comparison to the base figure. I just need to dig out my BFS Greek fodder for the belt/skirt and then I can paint.

That looks great. Those fists look cool or it. The brass knuckle part makes sense for a bull to have as it smashed the crap out of stuff.
