I mainly used pictures of Baphomet (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baphomet) as reference. Comments and suggestions are always welcome.

Honestly I would've assumed it to be a 40k ork with a different color scheme, Chimeras tend to have more of a lion-faced vibe or if you're going for more of the magic-experiment vibe, like a bunch of creatures melded together.

And some classical chimeras

I probably should clarify, I wasn't going for a traditional chimera, but a more humanoid/monstrous fusion. Perhaps I could still make the different animal traits more distinct. The 2 main ones I had were the ox horns, and a lion mane (the orange mane on the chest). Looking at the image, I definitely see the orc comparison.

Ah, I see! In that case, what are the monsters being combined here? What's your crossbreed from?
