Fortunately there is a instrucion from Varric (http://hawke.livequest.de/digi.html), how to make digigrate legs, and resin hooves. But actually i like the deep slot of my Lino-hooves, which is not planed in Varrics instruction, because at this point is a pipe (the underconstruction).
So I had to find another resolution. Perforated metal plate was the best idea, i could find, because this material can brought easilly in any form and the resin can fit in a good way in the holes of this plate.
So first step is to bring the perforated metal plate in the right form, so that it will fit well to the shoe.
Then cut glass fiber mat into stripes and glue this with the resin on the hoove plate. Important by doing this is, that the resin can creep trough the holes and glue everthing to one. This can drive you crazy, because the fiber mat won't do what you will that it do. XD
Now it have to dry! And dry and dry... (this can take a few days)
After drying you can fit the hoof to your shoe like the way at the Lino-hooves.
Painting, furring, ready! XD
