    May I ask how the hooves are done?

      Sure! The base is foam sheet from home depot (that puzzle piece flooring they sell). Then I used a pair of old sneakers on the insides for my feet. The hoof base is trimmed in an oval shape and I used more sheet foam to build up the outsides with it tapering in (the foam was from an EVA camping mat from wal-mart). The front of the hoof has some black textured vinyl that wraps around to the back, glued on to the camping mat foam. The fur is glued on over type of the vinyl and tapers up slightly as it goes up my leg. I have some pieces of egg-crate foam inside to fill out the foam and make the hooves taller. They were kind of a rush job before FC so if I had them to do over again I probably wouln't make the bases as big and would have tapered the fur in a little more.

      Hope that helps!

        Oh wow, yea that is a big help. I am looking at how to make a pair of hooves in case I ever get the gumption to actually get a suit made. It would be nice to try and rig up digitigrade legs with the hooves, being a horse and all I would like to look as correct as possible- silly I know. Thanks for the hoof making idea- I may have to work on that soon :)

        Again, nice suit
