Overall Project QualityI feel like this is a really unique and special art piece every time I put it on. There’s nothing else quite like it out there and I couldn’t be happier with the construction or visual execution. I think AkelaTaka would be an excellent maker for anyone looking for a realistic suit. If you have to opportunity to commission them or purchase a premade, take it! Components Head Wear SatisfactionVery easy to wear. It fits perfectly, no loose parts. The moving jaw works better than any of my other realistic heads. In a lot of realistic heads the resin cast is very heavy and pulls the snout down at an unnatural angle, this doesn’t happen at all here. It’s very solid but not heavy at all. Like with many realistic heads, the vision is limited, but no better or worse than in my other 4 realistic, acrylic eyed heads. The ventilation is superb and I find it easy to wear for hours at a time. All in all I can wear this head for hours and not experience any discomfort beyond heat. Visual SatisfactionThe attention to detail and craftsmanship is astonishing. I can’t believe how much it looks like a fursuit version of my art style. The custom sculpted teeth are a highlight… they’re actually set like a real fox’s teeth, and they’re quite sharp! The artist worked with me extensively regarding the eye design which was a lot of fun, and really paid off! RatingFursuitReview rates by asking the question: Would you recommend this maker?
