I finally finished the hoof model I started over 8 months ago!
I ended up redoing it entirely from scratch because my previous model had some very poor design choices that made it hard to work with, and it had flat spots, weird angles, and thin spots that might break while in use. It only took me a few hours over a couple days to complete, and then a few more days of printing some tests to try and get the scale correct. The copper colored one is a picture of the old model, but I really like that mid-print photo so I included it. Having learned more about using Fusion 360 in these last few months is what I really needed to be able to finish this.
I'm still not entirely sure about the scale of these for use on a fursuit though so you may have to print draft a set at low quality, decide if something is a little too large/small for you, and scale it based on that for a final set.
There is also a version with holes for sewing. I have not tested this version but I'm hoping it's good enough if someone wants to be able to sew instead of glue. I also think it could be used to sew on velcro for removable hooves, to make the parts easier to clean.
Here's the STL, and if you make anything with these, please let me know, I'd love to see it if they get used!

Thank you!
I personally think DVC's hooves are still the best of the best. But those aren't 3D files for 3D printing, which means I can't print a bunch to try different colors for only $1-2 of material per hand per color (and then $5-10 per hand for final prints that are stronger and use more material).

You could also get it made by someone else. There's a link to the files in the description and the license I shared it with allows other people to sell prints of it.

Vous pouvez également le faire fabriquer par quelqu'un d'autre. Il y a un lien vers les fichiers dans la description et la licence avec laquelle je l'ai partagé permet à d'autres personnes d'en vendre des copies.

I would like to eventually but I really burned myself out on this project. I have pretty much zero experience modeling stuff like this so I spent waaaay too much time getting this to be something I was happy with.
I know what you mean about not being able to find any, there isn't even anyone selling a model I like, which is the reason I made this one.
