Success

Unusual joints

A leg like this would have to support an unusual walk. An unusual walk requires an unusual joint. You spend several hours working with the beast's pelvis, discerning just how it might have been structured to enable an exceptional mobility.


Failure

An ordinary leg

It is hard to imagine how this creature might have walked, given the torsion on the bone and the placement of the foot. You do your best to give it a plausible angle, but it doesn't quite persuade.
