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.
It fits fairly well! I have difficulty wearing my glasses inside of it but it's not a huge issue!
Ventilation is alright, he has an open mouth to allow for ventilation. I usually find myself slightly fidgeting with the head so my mouth is right by the ventilation hole and if not, can get a little stuffy
The vision is great! Seems like he has just the normal blind spots most heads have
Appearance Satisfaction
Please describe how satisfied you are with how your costume piece looks from the outside.
Yes he's symmetrical!
The shaving is even, there are just a few small spots around the ears where it seems to be slightly shaven too close? But it's not noticeable unless you're deliberately looking for it
The fur feels and looks great! The fur is luxury shag and I often find myself petting the longer fur while I'm holding him. The airbrushing is absolutely wonderful and creates a smooth transition between the markings! I have not had any issues with it
The eyes are follow me, and he's so expressive and adorable! It's really fun to photograph him at different angles because the appearance of his mood can look different depending on the angle
TAILS
The following questions ask you to explain how satisfied you are with each feature of the tail(s) of the costume.Wear Satisfaction
Please describe how it is to wear these pieces of your costume.
I am very satisfied with how it fits! It has two loops used to attach it to the belt, and feels very comfortable. Very easy to put on and take off
The quality is absolutely wonderful, and I daresay I think it's my favorite part of the partial (but not much more than the head). No sea,s have popped, nothing has torn, everything is perfect!

Describe your experience. What were the pros and cons of working with this maker? And any final comments?
I had an absolutely wonderful experience with the seller! I found the partial while browsing on FA and I asked him many questions about the costume and he was happy to answer all of them, and even took an extra picture for me that I had asked for!
The price for him was initially higher, but after hearing that I was taking my cat to the vet, he offered a lower price even though I hadn't asked him to. He's very compassionate and sweet!
He offered me a tracking number and communicated with me as he was being shipped!
The box and packaging for the suit left more to be desired, and I'm thankful he came to me undamaged. The box was kind of thin and he was packaged in a garbage bag, and while he arrived safely, does leave me a tad concerned!

This was fantastic to see, and I wanted to add for the packaging that I always put suits into some kind of bag like a clear one that had fur fabric in it and if I do not have one available an unscented plastic trash bag is a good substitute as it is meant to protect the suit in case it arrives on a potentially Rainy day and the box becomes wet or damp from the weather :)
