Head

How satisfied are you with the fit of the head?
Is it too tight or loose? Does anything poke you, stab you, make it uncomfortable to wear? Is it Lined comfortably?

Aries’ head couldn’t fit me anymore comfortable! I was very pleased on how it was tight enough where it wouldn’t move around a lot but loose enough where I don’t have to worry about any headaches, etc etc

How satisfied are you with 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 that most suits do not have peripheral vision)

It has the typical blind spot in the middle, which is to be expected. Vision overall thou is excellent!

How satisfied are you with the ventilation?
Can you breathe well? Is the mask stuffy? Does the air circulate through your head?

I could wear the head for hours without dying

How satisfied are you with the symmetry of the head?
Are the eyes or ears lopsided? Are the markings symmetrical per character design?

Perfect

Is the Shaving even?
Can you see the backing? Is it choppy? Is the transition to long fur what you were looking for?

I was floored on how well the shaving is for Aries. Perfect

How satisfied are you with the expression and overall appearance of the head?

I choose Donthugcacti because how toony their heads where and I always how they did canines in general. I was not at all disappointed

Body

How satisfied are you with how the body fits?
Is it comfortable to wear? Does it allow for good movement?

I get overheated pretty quickly. Their bodysuits didn’t overheat me like I first thought it would. Can wear for hours without feeling awful. Was tight enough to foam my body shape, but loose where I don’t feel constricted on some of the movements

How satisfied are you with the quality and durability of the body?
Are the seams durable? Can you move without popping seams?

This was the issue I was worrying about for a while whenever DHC had some negative reviews over the body. I’m happy to say that mine came out super strong and I been kinda crazy with it. Still looks awesome, no holes, no hearing any pop in seams. Super impressed

How satisfied are you with the selection of colors and material?

Very pleased. They emailed me before starting on the project with what fur they had for Aries. I fell in love with it right off the bat

Hands and Feet

How satisfied are you with the fit of the hands and feet?
Will your wrists/ankles show is you stretch too much? Do they stay on your hands or do they slide off? Can you put them on comfortably with ease?

Nope! Easy to put on/off!

How satisfied are you with the quality of the hands and feet?
Has anything come undone or fallen apart? Have any pawpads or claws fallen off?

Very satisfied! Everything still looks like the day I first got Aries

Tails

How satisfied are you with the quality of your tail?
Is it too cumbersome? Can you pull on it without tearing? Are the straps secure and even?

Super impressed with the tail ^^

How accurate to your concept art is your tail?
Did they get all the markings? Are the colors accurate?

It’s pretty simple tail. Can’t really mess that up ^-^

Wings

How satisfied are you with the quality of your wings?
Are they too cumbersome? Can you pull on them without tearing? Are the straps secure and even?

Took me a bit to adjust the strips to be able to slide on and off (this was more of user error because I have shoulder issues on the left side where I can’t lift up too high) but once I found the right adjustment, it’s perfect

How satisfied are you with the ease of wearing your wings?
Do they fall off? Do you require someone else to put them on for you? Do they weigh you down?

Light as a feather!

Overall

How satisfied are you with how closely the suit matched the concept art?
If there was none, please state N/A

Very pleased!

How satisfied are you with the consistency of your suit to the makers style?

Very satisfied! You can tell Aries is a proud member from DHC
How satisfied are you with the overall quality?
Are all the seams durable? Has anything fallen apart? Are there any holes?

No holes! Been holding to everything with no issues!

How satisfied are you with how well everything fits together and matches up?
Do you markings match up at the seams? Are the colors consistent?

Perfect

How satisfied are you with how easy it was to initially contact the maker for a quote?
Did they take an unreasonably long time to respond?

Was super friendly with me from start to finish! They seem very eager on taking my project and I never felt like I was irritating them or anything. Everyone who I was in contact with was very professional and friendly

How satisfied are you with the response time from the maker?

I never had to wait more than a few days at max

How satisfied are you with the level of professionalism and friendliness of the maker?
Were they pleasant to work with?

Was very professional and friendly to work with. I was a little nervous at first because again with people mentioning they seem pretty rough with their customers. Never felt like I was a bother to them at all and really made me feel like I was more than just a customer; that I was becoming part of the DHC family

How satisfied are you with how the deadline was met for completion of your project?
Were any deadlines missed or was it done early?

Didn’t really have a deadline, but it was done ina timely manner ^^

How satisfied are you with the overall quality of your project?

Extremely satisfied

Extremely satisfied
