Fursuit Help

General
Hey everyone who is watching i have a question or two for thoes who make fursuits, or have one. Im being annoyingly picky with what i want, im after a full suit without a head, yeah i know, allot of people say thats just a silly idea as the head is what makes a suit so unique. But i have anxiety attacks and claustrophobia when i have something on my head and my senses dulled. so what i want is a Body, legs, ears, tail arms, feet and hands.
Only problem i have, is allot of the suiters out there in the community make suits look too toony, even if they don't plan on it. I understand that to have a tight suit, ill need to make a Duck-tape dummy. so im fine with that. But i want Digitigrade legs that dont look too... puffy with padding, or if they make stilts, too bulky. and id like it to be ALL fluffy, not just the extremity's, the suits made by using a skin suit and adding fluff on top of it just looks Bad to me
Then the last problem is that my characters fur is a very bright blue which is a hard colour to find. I would like it to be Machine washable, But that's not a necessity.
So if anyone knows of a maker who can do all of this, Please tell me so i can have a look

Primary colors are generally going to make anything look unrealistic. Fur is also always going to be thick - it needs a sturdy base to hold all the fibers in. FINDING the color is not going to be nearly as hard as making it look realistic.
The more popular digitigrade suitmakers I've seen are http://Beastcub.com and http://DontHugCacti.com Studios. I don't think Beastcub is currently taking commissions though. http://MadeFurYou.com Studios are pretty popular, but if you're going realistic maybe not so much.
I think your BEST BET, however, is going to be http://ClockworkCreature.com They specialize more in fantastic creature costumes than typical fursuits, super-realism especially.

I know this is old but I've been looking at a lot of different suitmakers and figured I'd throw in my two cents xD
