Overall

Initial ContactVery easy, email quote from their website, they then communicated with me on telegram


Maker Communicationpretty good, most things were responded to within 48hrs or less

Project Completion TimeI was originally a 2017 completion item, I pushed it back with a delayed DTD and a slow payment plan, after all was said and done I was offered a refund in 2018, took it then reversed it after seeing new work, I talked about being re-added at the end of the queue with no deadline


Overall Project QualityOverall super happy with this suit, Maker communicated any delays and even though my wait time would be considered super long, I had a long payment plan, and actually told the maker to back burner my project for my own personal life reasons, I was also offered a full refund at one point but declined it. If anything it turned out way better than I had even hoped.

I paid the complete low end of this price bracket and when I tell friends what I did pay they literally thought I stole this thing, I under paid greatly for the quality and work I received, everything looks great together and moves well, so far any issues I have been able to bring to the maker directly for corrections, I can be a little rough with suits and so far every thing minus one claw has held together really well (my toe claw got stuck on something and pulled a thread, I will reattach it later)



Components


Head

Wear Satisfactioncomfy and mostly lined on the inside with a lycra like material,
I can easily fit my glasses but mesh does have a eye spot where the paint wasn't poked through, but it doesn't hinder my vision
open mouth is very breathable and I can easily shove a water bottle into it
head is light weight and durable, I have shoved it into a backpack and its survived multiple flights shoved around


Visual SatisfactionShaving and markings are nice and symmetrical, no bald spots
fur is good quality and the drafted expression on the ref sheet matches perfectly with my vibe


One-Piece Body

Wear SatisfactionBody is a 3/4s digi suit with attached feet
the legs, tail, and arms are attached to a mesh vest

the attached feet and legs are very comfy, the padding it removable in the thighs making it nice and easy for travel, its held in place my a soft mesh material that even when against skin is nice and comfy

Maker asked if I wanted the tail attached, and asked if i wanted it also on a belt, I declined the belt option, though hindsight it might have been a better choice to better support the legs

the only fit issues I have are all on me, Maker requested a new DTD and I sent one in Jan 2020 I proceeded to go through a massive weight change ~(40 lbs) I bulked up quite a bit, making certain areas looser and others much tighter,


Visual Satisfactionsuit is super good looking, my markings look great, and I get a lot of compliments on the color combination and pattern
the fur is really good quality and looks super close to the refence, the maker did check in with me a few times to clarify portions of the ref especially concerning the legs, where the art wasnt clear and showed variations


Hands

Wear Satisfactionsoft comfy and perfect size, a decent amount of dexterity can be accomplished even though they are puffy paws


Visual Satisfactiongood quality plush fur, I love the minky fur on the ends as well!
