I paid through PayPal in two installments and it was very easy to understand the measurements they needed. Project Completion TimeI paid off my commission in November, they said I was second in the queue and said once production started on my suit I would receive it in a month and a half. When they started production on my suit, it took them less than two weeks to complete it and ship it out to me. The shipping took about a week and a half to arrive and she arrived nicely packaged with some stickers and post cards all wrapped in a plastic bag for protection! Overall Project QualityFor quality I would say this is definitely the nicest suit I own. The maker did such a beautiful and professional job creating my suit and I couldn't be any more satisfied! I've worn her for many many hours and have had no issues outside the general fursuiting such as becoming hot, sweating, etc. I am so satisfied with this suit and I honestly don't plan on commissioning any makers for more fursuits after commissioning JellyDog because I feel I will only like to use this suit and my other main suit! It was absolutely worth the entire price and working with Jelly was such a pleasure! Her craftsmanship is lovely and she does have small flaws but they are not anything that ruins the suit and I honestly like them ! There are visual seams along her muzzle but they are not messy at all and are very clean! They don't bother me at all! I was looking for the cute kemono/furry style dog suit and they pulled through perfectly and even higher than my expectations! I can't imagine any other maker creating her as perfectly and beautifully as JellyDog. Components Head Wear SatisfactionThe head is so incredibly comfortable! It's lined with black foam and sponge padding that's very nice and doesn't irritate my face at all. The head is a little large on me especially without a balaclava but it's not enough to bother me. I gave exact measurements for the inside head padding but they may have been a little bit off since they were older measurements. The head does get hot but it has a built in fan inside the muzzle that helps a lot, it connects to a battery pack that is stored in the back of the neck inside a pocket. The ventilation is not great, it does get stuffy but again the fan helps a lot! The vision is fantastic, the eyes are pretty large and are black on the opposite side so it makes it very easy to see with very small blind spots.The peripheral vision is incredible as well! I don't have to turn my head completely to see to the side compared to other suits. Visual SatisfactionThe suit is 3D printed so the design is very symmetrical, the head they created for me matches my design perfectly and fits my character so well. the shaving is longer than some of the other suits I own but it's honestly so perfect in relation to her other markings. It makes her scar pop out much more since it's much shorter fur! The shaving is not choppy at all and is very clean. The material is very high quality. Every color fur is incredibly soft and nice to touch and wear, I like to just have her in my lap and pet her!! It is very easy to brush! The expression fits her character so nicely, it's perfect representation from my reference sheet and I even got angry eyelids that blend into her head I had people think that that's just what her eyes looked like until I removed them! They are attached with magnets so they have a strong stick with no issue of coming off while I move around. She has colorful follow me eyes!
