I wanted a Thoon Hulk mini but thought the prepainted D&D mini was kinda cheesy. I'd done other mini conversions, so I thought I try to make me a monster. 
I started with three different Reaper minis, a Bathalian Primarch, a Hellborn Troll, and the axe from the Kainus mini.
I cut the head off the Primarch, which took some work with my pin vise and razor saw. I the attached it to the troll body by shaving the existing neck, pinning the two piece Primarch head to,it, and filling the gaps with green stuff. I also had to make sure the angle off head would not conflict with the upraised arm.
I cut off the hand of the upraised arm and replaced it with a axe head (pinned and green stuffed on). I thought it would look better, and more brutal, if it still had an operational hand. Besides, how's he gonna eat and do other mundane tasks? :-)
I the also cut the face off a random mini I had and attached to he shoulder with green stuff.
Then I painted and based it on a resin base. I wish I would have done more shading, but it turned out pretty nice.
