Features: Horns or Antlers Concept Art Photos of Completed Product Overall Initial ContactI technically bought the head and arms on two separate occasions. I first contacted her on Etsy about the arms since I was going around to see who was willing to make my sona's less than conventional hands. The head was later on. Maker CommunicationShe's pretty good at updated! Has both a telegram chat and a trello to see progress and where everyone is at in the queue. She also just dms you to let you know personally about what's going on with your order and shows pics before it's shown in the telegram. Project Completion TimeThe arms was finish in about a month and a half along with other hand paws she was making at the time? The head however, which was ordered separately in March, took a while for it to be started on due to things happening in her life that kept delaying it along others. But the actual amount of time she took to start and finish it was about two weeks or so! Overall Project QualityOverall I'm very happy with my suit! I'm glad my sona came out so well and I love how they look on me. It was very fun getting to wear them at my first con and I hope to get a lot of use out of it! The mix of material for the black/grays and the pink looks so nice together. No visible issues from what I can see and it just overall a really pretty suit! I can tell she enjoyed making my suit! Components Head Wear SatisfactionThe head fits very well when it's on! The neck is a bit more form fitting and despite it having a zipper, it doesn't go too far up the head, so I still have to wiggle it on some to get it on. I had asked for bigger measurements since I have a lot of hair and glasses, and she was able to do so! It does accommodate both, but I have to use my smaller pair of glasses when I put the head on! The head has a bit of weight to it being made with worbla, so it is stiff and no real give to it, but it's honestly not that bad to wear for hours on end. My head and neck never really hurt while wearing! The vision and ventilation also are great with it. With my character having a shorter snout and my mouth situated right in the hole, I can breath perfectly fine. And the snout is also hollow so more air can move around in it. Visual SatisfactionIt looks pretty much just like my sona! She did accidentally make the horns bigger than what they actually are, but I honestly like how they look and decided to let her keep them! A lot of other people like the horns too so it works out! I also love that she got this satin(?) like material to match the shininess of the rose gold parts of my character. I didn't even really request it, she offered it and I said sure! I especially love the teeth. She opted to do plush teeth to maintain the same material for consistency and it came out amazing! Hands Wear SatisfactionThe hands are nice, they're not lined but they still feel comfortable to wear. And since they're five fingers and not puffy paws, I have a lot of dexterity while wearing them! They also stay on my arms pretty well despite not being super form fitting to them. Visual SatisfactionI'm happy she was able to replicate the type on hands I wanted since no one else I asked seemed willing to do so. The shimmery material looks nice and the scale plates on them arms are nice and plush like the claws! RatingFursuitReview rates by asking the question: Would you recommend this maker?
