Head Wear Satisfaction
Are you satisfied with how it fits you? Is it too tight or loose? Does anything poke you, stab you, make it uncomfortable to wear? Is it lined comfortably?
Yes, it fits very well
How is the ventilation? Can you breathe well? Is the mask stuffy? Does the air circulate through your head?
The ventilation is very bad. I was hyperventilating the minute I put it on, but dealt with it. Almost passed out after about 15 minutes of suiting.
How is the vision? Can you see well in front of you? Is there a large blind spot? Do you have to turn your head to see? (Note: most suits do not have peripheral vision)
Vision is excellent, doesn’t really even have a blind spot
Visual Satisfaction
How is the symmetry? Is anything lopsided? Are the markings symmetrical per the character design?
The symmetry seems good to me, and the markings are great.
Is the shaving even? Can you see the backing? Is it choppy? Is the transition to long fur what you were looking for?
The shaving is fine, except for the ears. They seem choppy.
How does the fur feel and look? If it was airbrushed, is the fur crunchy? Do the markings rub off or bleed? Is the fur able to be brushed or smoothed easily?
Fur is quality, brushed and cleaned easily. Markings are sewn in.
How satisfied are you with the expression and overall appearance of the head? Can you achieve varied expressions from different angles? Are the eyes follow-me or static?
The head’s expression is great from straight on. It’s just one expression, but it fits the character.
Does it match the concept art?
Yes
Hands and Feet Wear Satisfaction
How satisfied are you with how the hands and feet fit? Are they comfortable to wear? Do they allow for good movement? Will your wrists/ankles show if you stretch too much? Do they stay on your hands/feet or do they slide off? Can you put them on comfortably with ease?
The hands aren’t very well made, nor the armsleeves. They have nothing holding them up, and are kind of big. They slid off, and I have to constantly adjust them.
How is the quality and durability? Are the seams durable? Can you move without popping seams? Have paw pads or claws fallen off?
Nothing has fallen off and they seem durable
What is the interior like? Is it lined? Is it messy (fabric marks etc.) on the inside? What type of shoe base do the feet use?
The interior is not lines. Its just basic backing.
Visual Satisfaction
How is the symmetry? Is anything lopsided? Are the markings symmetrical per the character design?
The basic yellow is fine. However, the red pawpads are extremly uneven, and some aren’t even in the right place.
Is the shaving even? Can you see the backing? Is it choppy? Is the transition to long fur what you were looking for?
The shaving is great.
How does the fur feel and look? If it was airbrushed, is the fur crunchy? Do the markings rub off or bleed? Is the fur able to be brushed or smoothed easily?
Very easy to brush
How satisfied are you with the selection of colors and materials used? Are the paw pads fleece, silicone, something else? Are they hooves? Do you like how they look and feel? Do they get scratched easily?
Yes, I am satisfied with the selection.
Tails Wear Satisfaction
How satisfied are you with how the tail(s) fit? Are they comfortable to wear? Do they allow for good movement? Can you put them on comfortably with ease?
Yes, it is just a basic tail and does its job.
How is the quality and durability? Are the seams durable? Can you move without popping seams or straps? Has anything (spikes, scales, etc.) fallen off?
The seams on the actual tail are durable.
Can you pull on it without tearing? Are the straps secure and even?
No, the strap broke extremely easily. I almost lost my tail because it broke during a con.
Visual Satisfaction

Shaving is good

Fur is good quality

Yes, it matches.
Overall Product Satisfaction
How was your concept art realized? The suit matches the concept art perfectly.
How well does everything fit together and match up? Matches great, consistent colors.
Overall Project Quality I am dissapointed in the feet unwearableness, the tail strap breaking, the ventilation, and the pawpads. However, I am extremly pleased with the look of the suit.

Rating
FursuitReview rates by asking the question: Would you recommend this maker? This review has been marked with a neutral rating. Moonsugars depending on circumstances that have been clarified in this review. Final Comments
When I contacted them, they were excited. They’re new to making suits, so it was cheap. I got what I paid for, I guess. They were friendly, but weren’t prompt with updates unless I asked for them.
But I would like to say- It does not seem they are replying to anyone anymore that they owe commissions. People are being scammed by them.
