Is it too tight or loose? Does anything poke you, stab you, make it uncomfortable to wear? Is it lined comfortably?
Fits perfectly.

Got a good field of vision in the suit

How satisfied are you with the ventilation?
Can you breathe well? Is the mask stuffy? Does the air circulate through your head?
Is very comfortable and I can wear it for hours without overheating. Good flow of air in the head

How satisfied are you with the symmetry of the head?

Has a good symmetry.

Is very nicely shaved and the transition to long fur looks really well.

The head got a great expression and it fits the character well.

 

Hands and Feet
How satisfied are you with the quality of the hands and feet?
Has anything come undone or fallen apart? Have any pawpads or claws fallen off?
I only got new hands with the suit and like my old hands from the same maker. They fit well and are easy to put on. Can put them both on with ease
The quality of the hands is good. There was one seam by the thumb that had gotten loose after some heavy use. But it was fixed fast by the maker.

Are they too cumbersome? Can you pull on them without tearing?

They fit nicely and are easy to pull on.

All markings and colours are matching

How satisfied are you with the ease of wearing your sleeves/warmers?
Do they fall off?
They are easy to wear and they don’t fall off.

Do you markings match up at the seams? Are the colors consistent?
All colours are consistent trough out the suit and everything matches up perfectly.

Describe your Experience. Pros, cons, or any final comments
Originally I made a deal with them about getting my old head base refurbished.
Sadly it turned out to be so bad that it was not possible to save.
What I didn’t know was that right after the bad news; Alpha Dogs immediately started getting donations from friends to help buying material to remake the head from scratch.

They soon got so many donations, that they had enough to make a partial suit, using every free time they had to make it.

When the fursuit was done, they made a fake furmeet at a friend’s house, getting me to believe that we were just going to hang out eating some pizza.

When they arrived, they told me they brought a little friend with them, and to my big surprise one of them stepped inside, wearing the suit.

I was very overwhelmed by the surprise, and that my friends had donated to help making the suit a reality.
