HANDS AND FEET
The following questions ask you to explain how satisfied you are with each feature of the hands and feet of the costume.

---

Wear Satisfaction
Please describe how it is to wear these pieces of your costume.
The hands are so comfortable! I was shocked with how dexterous they are, despite how large the paws are. There are the usual limitations that you get with big paws, but it's been super easy to wear.

The first wear was a bit tricky, as it took me a while to adjust the inner lining to adjust properly to be easy to wear. But once it started settling it's super easy to get on and off!

No slipped seams. The inside is fully lined with lycra, so it is super soft and doesn't get too hot. It does retain a lot of moisture but it dries fairly quickly when put in-front of a fan.


Appearance Satisfaction
Please describe how satisfied you are with how your costume pieces look from the outside.
Beautiful! Markings match my ref sheet.

I provided the fur and vinyl used in the paws. They are a true work of art.

OVERALL SATISFACTION
The following questions ask how satisfied you are with the overall buying experience, including your interactions with the maker and the resulting final product.

---

How was your concept art realized?
Matched my concept art perfectly! Nothing special was needed to be done.


How well does everything fit together and match up?
The paws are symmetrical with each other. Seams are lined up very well. No issues! :)

Matches all the handpaws that WUHD has made in the past.


How easy was it to initially contact the maker for a quote?
Super easy to contact. WUHD posted for submissions on Twitter. I filled out a form on their website and when they accepted they contacted me right away via email.

They listed out exactly what I had requested including the special request for longer wrists.


How satisfied are you with the response time from the maker?
How long did it take the maker to get back to you?
Extremely satisfied! They either responded same day or the next day at the latest. I was never waiting for an answer to a question. Always polite, kind, and wonderful when responding!


How satisfied are you with the professionalism and customer service and of the maker?
Extremely satisfied. The quick responses made everything go super smooth. They were professional and friendly. They do an amazing job of making you really feel special during the process and well cared for!


How satisfied are you with how long your project took to complete?
I asked for one deadline for Anthrocon 2018 (At the time was about 5 months away) and they blew that deadline out of the water and finished it in ONE MONTH! The project was done so fast! Once the paws were finished they were shipped very soon after paying the invoice.


Are you happy with the product you received?
Extremely happy! It was absolutely worth the price I paid for. I keep recommending WUHD to all of my friends!


Describe your overall experience with this maker.
Seriously. You will not be happier after working with them. WUHD is a wonderful person and makes wonderful products. I cannot say this enough!
