Informed Maker of IssuesThere were any major issues. I noticed a slight issue with the neck flap aligning improperly before receiving the suit and the maker installed magnets to ensure proper alignment. They work like a charm!

Overall

Initial ContactIt was very easy!


Maker CommunicationVery satisfied! And the maker provided clear instructions!

Project Completion TimeIt took almost a year but I went into it knowing where I was in queue and what the expectation was. Overall my expectations were met!


Overall Project QualityI am very happy with the quality of the work done! It's a great suit and the attention to detail is off the charts! It's durable and washable. The only issue I have found is that my fur is limited edition! Which isn't the makers fault! They just stopped making the fur! I did get color swatches to help match with my completed suit! The maker was Professional and personalable and very quickly over the year became a friend even though we didn't start out that way. Everything matches up and goes together! It exceeds my expectations


Components


Head

Wear SatisfactionHead fits well. Vision is good. There is a slight issue with a blank spot directly in front due to shape of characters head. Nothing to due with makers creation. The head is also "heavy" being made of foam but it works well. It does jostle around on my head from time to time. If I were to commission the head directly I would definitely get it measured to size next time. Unfortunately there are no fans in the head and the ventilation would probably be the main drawback of the head. Otherwise it's a cute design.


Visual SatisfactionIn this head it has decent peripheral vision but frontal vision is definitely lacking.


One-Piece Body

Wear SatisfactionThe body suit is amazing! The pattern and attention to detail are beyond words. It is a bit difficult to put on by yourself. Even my husband agrees it's a two person job. However! The lined padding is super nice! I would have liked to have seen the lined padding everywhere even in the arms. I did ask about the lack of lined padding and the maker explained the reasoning of why not. Explaining the reasons that the lined padding would have increased heat retention. I still think the ease of cleaning would have been nicer however I do understand. The movement and ease of being able to move is AMAZING!!! The hollow padding design…I cannot say enough positive things about this. I was able to move and dance and jump. It also only weighed 25 pounds for such as big toony suit!


Visual SatisfactionIt looks very clean and professional. Very happy with the quality! The only complaint I had was about the polyfill arms not being lined but I do understand the choice.


Tail

Wear SatisfactionI loved the tail and having the loop to tuck my tail up especially when walking through the con to keep it from dragging on the ground. The Height was perfect and it really suited the images for taking pictures. sitting was a bit of a challenge but because the tail was soft it was manageable because of the drop crotch.


Visual SatisfactionLooked great spots came out clean and the overall look of the tail was very nice!


Feet

Wear SatisfactionSuper comfy shoes and they looked clean and symmetrical! The pawpads showed up well and everything was trimmed evenly! Stretching my arms up did expose my ankles just a tiny bit but overall that might have been the padding itself I was feeling.


Visual SatisfactionThey looked awesome and I got lots of compliments on my feetpaws!


Special FeaturesI have a functional pouch on my tummy and it worked like a champ. I was able to tuck my phone and wallet and suit away! Also I had finger slots in my hand paws which allows for me to quickly use my fingers for things like my phone as needed! In addition to the magnetic alignment clasps for the neck flap and the tail zipper in the drop crotch as well as the hidden loop to hold up the tail in case I don't want it to drag!
