Estimated Completion Time (ETA) Accuracy EARLY - the item was delivered before the ETA Date of Review 15 October 2017 Project Timeline Contact Date July 2017 Completion/Ship Date August 2017 Item Completion Time (?) 1 - 3 Months Character Concept Art Head Wear Satisfaction It fits wonderfully! A little loose and I’ll sometimes have to nudge the head up, but comfortable! This is the best ventilation I’ve had on a fursuit so far; I can breathe freely and air circulates well throughout the head. Cute and cozy space lining! I have a large blind spot in the center of my vision due to the unnatural shape of the character’s head, but the maker made up for that by providing 3 tear duct vision spots and enough space in the mouth for me to be able to look out of when necessary. Visual Satisfaction Cryptid is an unusual fursuit because he’s made entirely out of minky. However, he has very few wrinkles and bumps; his seams are even well hidden! No awkward cuts anywhere, either! The best job I’ve ever seen with minky on such an unsual foam shape! There is some airbrushing as requested, but it does not leave the minky feeling excessively rough or crunchy. The neck is a bit short for my taste, but I have no other complaints whatsoever and generally don’t notice, since I usually wear a hoodie with the fursuit. The head is a perfect match to the concept art! I couldn’t have asked for better! Special Attachments and Features The special feature is that the head is fully minky. This was done per my request, and means that the fursuit takes more time to clean, but it is smooth and soft. Hands and Feet Wear Satisfaction The hands are minky lined with a lyrca-like material, and they’re extremely soft! They are comfortable to wear and not a single seam has popped, nor do my wrists show! They stay on perfectly and do not slide. Super cozy! Visual Satisfaction As mentioned before, minky is a high-maintenance material, but the hands are very easy to clean. Overall Product Satisfaction How was your concept art realized? Absolutely perfect! I love how the maker nailed the complex head shape! How well does everything fit together and match up? Well fitting and symmetrical, overall a comfortable and great suit! Overall Project Quality How satisfied are you with the overall quality of your project? 100% I’m glad I took the time to research a professional maker who would accurately replicate the head shape of the character, which is what +3 Defense did perfectly. Purchase Process Initial Contact All it took was a DM over Instagram, and I was able to commission her within the day of my quote! Maker Response Time Extremely satisfied! The maker replied within minutes! Maker Professionalism Amazing; the maker was kind and courteous throughout every step of the way and put up with my request for minky!
