It's been a while since I've done hooves, I almost forgot how :p And I searched forever to find one of my hoof molds (worried I accidentally thought it was an old model and threw it out) only to find it in the fridge XD (The same fridge I 'lost' my passport in a while back lol)
I'm super proud of the udders! It can be hard to make things that are suitably realistic (but not so realistic that it's not easily recognizable) and I can't get away with being too toony because it wouldn't match the rest of the costume :p
Edit: yes yes cow boobies are funny etc etc. The udders are removable so the suit can be worn without as well.

What may not look good to one does not make it look stupid to all. I find the above comment very rude, and personally do not hold the same ideals. If the customer is happy with it, then that is all that should matter.
No drama intended, I read purely curious and interested about it. My apologies.

Again, If the customer thought so, I'd be happy to redo it. But debating and backtracking really doesn't serve a purpose.

I can't say I'm a fan of the udders. Everything is really well blended and naturally colored, especially that pretty face, but the udders are very solid and bright pink. I wish I could give you advice on how to better integrate it but I can't really think of anything except airbrushing it with some neutral tones to tone it down a bit. Right now that's just the first place my eyes go. xD
For some reason I really love the hips... is the suit padded in any way?

not sure why people are considering themselves brave for saying this looks stupid. what is that about? i am sure you don't mind people giving critique, but i'm sure you'd appreciate if we'd atleast try and be thoughtful and constructive. i'm not sure how you are supposed to take input onboard when none is actually given. i'll try to give my two cents. it might be useless to you, but i hope you can appreciate i've tried to better explain what i think others are picking up on.
i think it is actually quite cool to finally see a cow with udders. i think it is great you have made them removable too. very clever. obviously you can't blend things in too much at the base because of that. the only thing that did make me raise an eyebrow is you seeming to say you didn't want to make them too tony. i guess it depends on the references, but they do seem rather round and (very) pink to be considered realistic. i tend to think of the udders largely matching the colouration of the cow besides the underneath and teats. although chances are you may have just meant you wanted to take real udders into consideration when making it, rather than just having an amusing pink blob. it seems clear you have done that (take reality into consideration i mean). i think you've done a very nice job.
i can also see why people might find some of the markings odd. i think the eye is drawn to them because of the differences. which is fine, but the fact there doesn't seem to be much blending / airbrushing (possibly purposeful, either based on design or to keep costs down i don't know) means there isn't much to reduce that effect. a more gradual colour change likely wouldn't jump out so much. but i'm wondering if it's the lighting here that's making things seem more different than they are. i once remember someone with a suit from another maker who found the head to be noticeably darker than the rest. it was the same fur, but a different length. so it was just down to the light reflecting off the different lengths. here it might even just be down to angles. because some of the whites seem much darker. i think that is what is drawing people's attention, rather than the markings themselves. similar also seems to have happened to a lesser extent on the thighs etc. obviously it could be the case that it is supposed to be this way, with creamier fur for those parts, in which case it doesn't matter. but i do think using the same colour and/or airbrushing may have worked better, but that's just personal preference.
