Maker CommunicationCommunication was phenomenal. Everything is clear and easy to follow, frequent updates and questions to insure the best quality to your desires and wishes. Quick responses and even now after having the product, still easy to contact with quick responses and offered help with any needs regarding the suit. Super friendly and helpful all around. Project Completion TimeFor a fullgrade digi suit. The turn around time was way faster then I expected, even more so for the quality given. Overall Project QualityI could not be happier with end result of my suit. Black Cheetah Studios brought my sona to life way better than I ever could have imagined. Components Head Wear SatisfactionHead fits well and while big and spacious (I can wear my glasses comfortably in suit if needed), vision is still solid and better than some other suits I have worn. Having owned the suit for nearly 3 years now I have had no needs for repairs, eyes have held up well, fur has sustained well and I've only ever had to redo the glue on my magnetic piercings twice which is insane. The weight distribution is perfect. Good ventilation. Visual SatisfactionClear vision, not a terrible blindspot in comparison to other suits I have worn. One-Piece Body Wear SatisfactionHave worn the body suit for around 2 and half years now and only issue was replacing the zipper once a bit over a year ago. BCS does offer repairs if/when needed though its been 3 years and I've never had to use this yet. Suit is comfortable and fits well, digi padding is great, comfortable, sits perfectly and is easy to clean. The body itself has held up very well, with no damages to the fur and no stretching even after numerous times being cleaned. Suit is also easy to clean as it is washer safe and all you have to do is invert it inside out, wash it on tap temp and then let it air dry. Interior lining as help up phenomenally well. Last, airflow is decent, its a fullbody so obviously its going to be really hot but having worn it at cons, and public suiting for several hours without break. Airflow is amazing and safe. Visual Satisfaction<3 Hands Wear SatisfactionOverall fit is comfortable and while partially spacious still wears and looks perfect for me. Digi legs designed exactly how I envisioned them. And I can move comfortable with a wide range of motion. Allowing me to run, do cartwheels, dance, etc. Paw pads also wear and have held up incredibly well with no issues to stitching, they have fit me and numerous of my friends perfectly. And, the only damage to any of my paws is my foot paw where I stepped on a large rock while running outside at a con. Visual SatisfactionPaws look incredible, colors are perfect and are easy to brush and clean. Tail Wear SatisfactionBeing a pinemarten Quinns tail was one of the most important aspects of this suit to me. BCS did not disappoint. The tail is massive yet easy to clean, light enough that I can carry it at cons (though if wanting one of a similar size, would recommend getting a tail belt…. or whatever those things are called). The tail also came with a zipper so I could add or remove fluff to make is stiffer or not to allow better movability and make it easier and safer to clean. The tail is also comfortable to wear and even at its size is not hard to move around with and doesn't feel like I'm dragging much extra weight. Last the tail has offered the possibility of using it to add to character in use of photos, as a perfect weapon, something to hug or hide behind….. the perfect pillow when stuck in line con, and something fun for friends to hold onto when trying not to get lost in crowds or even just to look cute in photos and parades. THE TAIL IS LITERALLY PERFECT OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Visual SatisfactionSeriously its perfect. Fur patterns and stitching are spot on, not bleeding or clumps in fur, patterns blend seamlessly with a beautiful flow. Feet Visual SatisfactionAmazing transition between fur, patterns match perfectly with ref given. Special FeaturesI was given eyelids which are Velcro, magnetic piercings and a removable tongue. They are easy to take off and put on and again, ive only had to redo the glue on the piercings twice in around 3 years.

Final CommentsI leave it with this, Black Cheetah Studios is by far one of the best experiences I have had in this fandom. And yes thats including cons I have gone to.
