Review InformationReviewerAnonymous Prior ExperienceI have owned two other fursuits before Wear Time30+ hours Informed Maker of IssuesYes. When the head was being made, the light blue above the eyes were corrected right away when I brought up the need for the correction Amethyst Fennec Positive ProjectThis item was a commission Paid: A Payment Plan of $1000 - $2999 Initial Contact: January 2024 Completion/Ship Date: July 2024 Shipping Origin: USA Type: Partial Style: Toony Padding: Plantigrade SpeciesName: Fennec fox Found in: Canidae(?) Features: None Photos of Completed Product Overall Initial ContactI first learned about Magic Magey when she kindly offered to refurb my other suit due to that maker's beware, through Tik Tok. In chatting a little, I decided she would be fit to make Amethyst Maker CommunicationShe replies quickly, same day. Never left me in the dark. Always communicated her ideas and let me have input every step of the way. And she took feedback for suit aesthetics into consideration too. She got sick towards the end of building but besides a little bit of time to recover, she went back to work Project Completion TimeI paid monthly from January to April. And work began until July when she shipped the suit right after completion. She wasn't publicly open for commissions at the time but she was willing to take on Amethyst, which I'm grateful for Overall Project QualityYes. Magic Magey listens and takes feedback into consideration before starting work. She makes sure she is making something that her clients will love for a long time. She is also lovely to chat with in between work. She is a great consideration for budget vs quality for those who are looking for smaller makers who won't break the bank. I am still enjoying suiting as Amethyst two years later Components Head Wear Satisfaction•Very comfortable. Magic Magey included room for glasses so I can actually see while suiting. Even adding a padded rest for my forehead •Light weight enough for hours of use •Zipper in the back of the head to allow for glasses is possible to zip/unzip by myself (but easier with someone helping of course) •Vision and breathability in the head is to be expected for fursuits Visual Satisfaction•Fur backing is very slightly visible in the brow area and one of the purple cheek spots (this is a couple of years of wearing the suit so it may also be normal wear and tear) which isn't visible in photos •Magic Magey went over color matching with me to pick out the right color fits to use ahead of time Hands Wear Satisfaction•Comfy wearing and durable •Holo is good quality •Care instructions were provided with the holo paw pads to prevent scratches Visual Satisfaction•Very cute and a lot of compliments on the holo paw pads! •Dark purple matches the ref •Although the holo didn't match the original rainbow concept, the colors that the holo does reflect match the suits color scheme perfectly! I like the direction this went. And Magic Magey was transparent with me about this Tail Wear Satisfaction•Lightweight, feels like nothing while wearing •Durable •Has a hidden zipper for padding Visual Satisfaction•Accurate markings Feet Wear Satisfaction•Difficult to walk in but looks cute for photos •Fursuit sandals were provided to not scratch up the holo indoor paw pads or dirty up the paws. At BLFC, fur or fibers still got trapped on the soles even with sandals but a good brushing got it all off •Very soft inside the feet paws Visual Satisfaction•Love the digitigrade appearance •Again, love the holo!
