Why i would never commission a Dony hug Cacti suit
11 years ago
General
I guess this is relevant to a conversation i had with a friend but aw well; basically im thinking of commissioning a fursuit for another fursona of mine and Don't Hug Cacti was brought up.
Now i find their style is adorable and unique but i would personally never commission them; i think their suits are overpriced and you arent really getting your money's worth out of it. I wont deny that some of their work is well done (especially their shaving) but personally they have room to improve. Especially on their head sculpting, as all their heads pretty much look the same to me, just with a few differences.
I also hear they can be pretty rude or unprofessional; this post highlights some of those things as its a few people's experiences with them:

But yeah, i wont deny Lucky has talent. They have a very unique style. but they seem to be a little full of themselves to me. If im paying over $3,000 for something i would expect the best service. It seems more like we're paying for a brand then a quality product, and that's just not right.
As Ian put it; :if you can afford a DHC suit then you can spend that money on other, much better suiters", such as Mischiefmakers (who im considering highly atm), TunnysaysIDK, More Fur Less and a few others i cannot remember at the moment. Hell Clockworkcreature's suits are literally cheaper than DHC's, and they're REALISTIC and RESIN BASED so you'd expect them to be more expersnive. Hate me all you want but thats where i stand UuU

im actually thinking of just saving up some money and commissioning one instead of making it (i dont like how the base turned out so id rather have someone else make it) im thinking mine's pretty basic so it shouldn't be too bad cost wise (its only like 4 colours max, and the suit would mostly be red and white). I might go with Mischief Makers since i love the work they've done on your suit, plus they seem really kind and good with communication. Hopefully they'll accept mine next time around
