Overall

Initial ContactInitial contact with this maker was extremely simple. I found one of their auctions on the dealers den and contacted their instagram. Their instagram gave me an automated message which gave me their email. Once i emailed them, they replied within 24 hours and we started figuring out the commission.


Maker CommunicationCommunication is where this maker shines. Their communication is absolutely spectacular. Whenever i had any concerns or questions, they would reply within 24 hours. I have never been treated so well by a maker, and they where always extremely clear in their communication.

Project Completion TimeCompletion time was exactly as they had promised. In the middle of the commission, we came on hard times so i quickly contacted the maker, and they where extremely kind and compassionate about my situation. We agreed on a new deadline and they put me down lower on their que which allowed me more time to save up to finish paying the suit.


Overall Project QualityOver all, i am extremely satisfied with my suit. Visually it is absolutely adorable, it has plenty of extras such as two tongues of different lengths, bows, a collar, plenty of fake hair clips and a nose bandage so i can constantly change up her looks as i see fit. The project exceeded my expectations and was well worth the price i paid.


Components


Head

Wear SatisfactionHead fits me absolutely perfectly. There is inner padding that makes it fit my head perfectly. The inside is made of a soft fabric so it is comfortable to wear for long periods of time. Ventilation is absolutely amazing, not only is there ventilation from the mouth and eyes, but they have ear ventilation as well which is absolutely brilliant. Vision is pretty darn good for a fursuit head.


Visual SatisfactionVisually the head is stunning. The symmetry of the markings is pretty spot on, the shaving is even and the fur is super incredibly soft. The antlers can be removed or posed however you'd like which is super fun. They're also light weight so it does not affect the head at all and you can completely forget they are there when you are wearing. Makes for super easy storing. The head matches the concept art they gave me pretty darn well as well. The fur color did change at some point, but the concept art was tweeked in order to fix the difference. Over all, very impressed. I'd score the head 10/10.


Hands

Wear SatisfactionThe hands don't fit me quite as well, but i have super tiny hands so that was no surprise. I have a tiny pinky so i cant really move it unless i shove the paws down in-between my fingers but due to how small my hands it was expected. The hands are pretty sturdy and aren't at a risk of falling off when i put it on. The quality is great and the fur is super soft. The interior is very comfortable against the skin. There is even a squeaker in the paw pads and honestly you can completely forget it is there because it doesn't add any bulk or discomfort.


Visual SatisfactionVisually the paws are perfect. They match each other pretty good. The shaving is done pretty well, the hearts are slightly longer then the rest of the fur but i like that because it avoids the 'blobby' effect long fur can have, that can warp the heart if its exactly the same length. I feel it was done pretty well all things considered and i'm very happy with the result. I'd score 9/10 For the hand paws.


Tail

Wear SatisfactionThe tail is pretty interesting. Instead of just putting simple belt loops, they make it almost a separate piece sewn onto the tail. Its a slightly hard 'plateau' that is covered in fur where a belt or ribbon can go through. This plateau blends up so it looks like the fur seamlessly goes from my neck piece, to my wings, down to my tail. It is a very cool touch i rather appreciate. The quality is pretty good and the fur is soft.


Visual SatisfactionVisually the tail looks good. Matches the reference, looks cute, colors are correct, and the fact the part that goes against your back looks like a chibi bone and the fleshy bits is hella cute. It hops up and down when i do and i enjoy the way it moves. I'm extremely satisfied with the tail. Over all, 10/10 for the tail.


Feet

Wear SatisfactionFeet is where i am extremely impressed and feel they have gone above and beyond. I have very specific sized feet, i don't fit a 6, nor a 7, but 6/5 ain't quite right either. Since these feet paws where created custom the sizing fits be absolutely PERFECTLY. They are extremely durable, to that i can attest as i have used the indoor feet paws as slippers and have worn them everyday. There has been no wear and tare on the paws, they are pretty much exactly as they where when i got them.


Visual SatisfactionVisually they are super cute. The fur is the right length, the shaving is well done, and there is even shading in-between the toes that is done very well. The fur is again very soft, and they match the concept art pretty perfectly. Over all, 10/10. Would give a higher score if possible because of how prefect the fit is.


Special FeaturesOne special part of the suit that i adore, is the hidden pockets. The neck piece has a hidden compartment that is perfect for me to place my inhaler incase of emergencies. Both pairs of wings are mini backpacks so i can carry more stuff secretly. You wouldn't know the compartments where there unless you where looking for it which is super fun. The zippers are good quality, and the pockets are clearly lined well which is nice because i'm not worried about losing anything.
