Re: [h-cost] OT-Equus heads and hooves
My dad did a production of this many years ago. I probably won't be able to explain it well. The heads and hooves were made from metal "rod". They looked like cages - all the rods running vertically - no squares. The hoof parts fit the foot like a pair of skates and were at least a foot tall and were heavy enough that they could "stomp" them. The actors wore all black. If I remember correctly the eyes glowed - otherwise the metal was all black. Eeery - perfect!

Re: [h-cost] Image piracy - Anyone know who this is?
I ran into this a while back with an eBay seller. I complained to eBay and sent full documentation of what the offender was doing and my site. They took the offender down within a week. I have yet to see them back on as a seller on eBay ever since. Do screen shots of everything, now. This is a Power seller, it may take a lot to get them to be sanctioned. That being said however, I can tell you that eBay has changed somewhat from the day that I did that. Things are different there now so it may not be as easy to get someone to listen to you. Still, try. Etsy is another place where it is FULL of this type of offender. But unlike eBay Etsy will refuse to do anything about it. ♫ Chiara Francesca « Ehi Prof.!

Re: [h-cost] OT-Equus heads and hooves
Traditionally in the show, the horses are people carrying/wearing wire or cane or other cage-like pieces to give the impression of horses rather than create anatomically correct horses or, ghod forbid, panto horses! I have also seen it done with papier mache heads and conical cups around the ankles. I did make some hooves for a costume (Satan) about ten years back. They were carved from light timber (pine) in four sections then glued and screwed before painting. The inside shape was similar to a high-heel shoe so that the foot sat with the heel higher with the foot at a diagonal, not the most comfortable solution but the most appropriate for scale -- remember you hoof must sit well visually against the ankle. These hooves were then strapped around and up the ankle. I wanted the clip-clop sound so avoided some sensible rubber on the bottom but did place some grooves there to give a little traction. The main thing is to closely look at a horse hoof to see how they look, get the profile right, and remember the underside which has a lot of shape and texture. You can hide the ankle strapping under some hair -- think Clydesdale but not so thick, -C.
