Overall

Initial ContactIt was a post on Twitter, and we used DMs on Twitter. Measurements were discussed in a very understandable way.


Maker CommunicationVery easy contact with fast responses. We continued in Twitter after the initial message. Everything was laid out, but I didn't need to question anything. The maker was very kind and professional. They were quick to give WIPs and ask how things looked with updates.

Project Completion TimeThe completion time was faster than I expected. I didnt ask for specific completion due to no time restraints on my end. It was mailed out quickly after completion.


Overall Project QualityI am very impressed and happy with my suit. It was beyond my expectations as a whole I had a generally nice time with the maker and I am very satisfied overall. The makers style was definitely a selling point for me, and it came through with my suit.
Everything looks uniform when wearing together, and the quality of my suit is outstandingly nice, and I feel like the suit will last a long period of time. The amount paid was well appropriate for the quality I received.


Components


Head

Wear SatisfactionIt is a very nicely made fursuit head. It fits perfectly and sits right on my nose. It is comfortable to wear for hours, and it is breathable. The fursuit head isn't linned which I prefer, I like wearing my own balaclava for easy cleaning. The vision is amazing and I can get around perfectly fine.


Visual SatisfactionThe markings are perfect and precise to the reference sheet. I was extremely satisfied how smooth the shave job was on the face. The fur used is very nice and it is also easy to spot clean. I love the expression of the head I wanted a cute/soft looking fursuit.


Hands

Wear SatisfactionI am satisfied. The hand paws are very comfortable, they are easy to put on and off. Everything is sewn nicely including the paw pads. There is no lining, which I prefer again. It's easy to flip them inside out and clean.


Visual SatisfactionSatisfied, the markings are correct, same with the color of the pawpads. The fur blends very well together.


Tail

Wear SatisfactionI am satisfied with the tail. It is large and not heavy. I can walk around with it on the floor or in my harness. The straps are easy to get around a belt and the sewing is hidden and strong.


Visual SatisfactionVery satisfied. I asked for one large tail instead of making four separate ones. The maker asked for measurements and made the tail the perfect length that I asked. The fur is easy to brush out after wear.
The markings are correct to the reference and to my specific request.


Feet

Wear SatisfactionI am very satisfied. I asked for inside feetpaws and they are easily as comfortable as slippers. The feetpaws are easy to put on and off, they don't show any skin or weird pulling. They stay on even with active moment like dancing or walking up stairs. Everything is sewn with a nice black lining on the inside. The shoes themselves are removable for cleaning.


Visual SatisfactionAll the markings are also correct. Including the minky pawpads on the feet. The toes are even and the sewing on all the details are nice and clean. The fur is also easy to brush out and clean. The different fur colors run together nicely. The maker matched the reference perfectly.
