HEAD
The following questions ask you to explain how satisfied you are with each feature of the head of the costume. If you are reviewing only a set of ears, your answers would also go in this section.Wear Satisfaction
Please describe how it is to wear this piece of your costume.
Head fits very well and slides on very easily. I have a harder time wearing it with my new glasses(they're pretty big) so I just wear and older pair.
Ventilation is through the eyes and mouth only. I will say it's ok (about the same as a resin head with no fan). However, my suit has actual nose holes for I could fit in a small fan if needed.
The vision is excellent, with only a blind spot where my fursuit nose is.
Appearance Satisfaction
Please describe how satisfied you are with how your costume piece looks from the outside.
The attention to detail is spectacular.
She has gotten all the details of my character, including his snaggle tooth and eyebrow split.
The suit looks pretty symmetrical to me.
The shaving looks well done.
The fur is smooth and nicely done.
The expression is exactly as I had hoped. Eyes are curved in slightly and only sort-of follow (I was just expecting flat eyes)
Matching concept art phenomenally.
I do have two complaints. The maker only uses hot glue. I knew about this and I don't really mind (I'm just extra careful with the suit), but it is very obvious that she did (visible hot glue in some spots, overlapping fur, etc.) The eyes might also need to be replaced since they were made with "foamies" (thin craft foam).
OVERALL VISUAL SATISFACTION
The following questions ask how satisfied you are with the overall visual aspects associated with the costume.How satisfied are you with how closely the suit matches the concept art?
If there was no concept art, please state N/A
Very satisfied.
How satisfied are you with how well everything fits together and matches up?
Do you markings match up at the seams? Are the colors consistent?
Very satisfied.
MAKER INTERACTION AND COMMISSION PROCESS
The following questions ask how satisfied you are with all the aspects of communication between you and the maker.How satisfied are you with how easy it was to initially contact the maker for a quote?
Very easy to contact. We actually go to school together and talk frequently.
How satisfied are you with the response time from the maker?
How long did it take them to respond?
Very easy to contact. Maker gave very frequent updates.
How satisfied are you with how the deadline was met for completion of your project?
Were any deadlines missed or was it done early?
Very satisfied. Head was finished long before the deadline.
How satisfied are you with the overall quality of your project?
Very impressed with the quality considering how much I paid
How satisfied are you with the overall customer service and professionalism of the maker?
Very professional
Describe your experience. What were the pros and cons of working with this maker? And any final comments?
I will admit, I was a bit nervous because this was the maker's second EVER head.
She very quickly dispelled my fear and showed me her hard work and determination.
She is very social and was very happy to change or fix anything.
