Did the maker finish the item by the expected date (ETA)?
YES - the ETA was accurate


Did you tell the maker about any issues you had?

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 sits nicely around my own head and is comfortable when moving in
different directions. There is a slight tendency for it to lean downward
after some time of wearing it, but a quick push up of the muzzle fixes
this easily. Vision is quite decent through the eyes and the mouth
opening. Heat level is normal for a fursuit head and the built in
balaclava makes any sweat not an issue.

Appearance Satisfaction
Please describe how satisfied you are with how your costume piece looks
from the outside.
The appearance is a neat expression mixing cute and fierce together.
This allows me to better portray different moods through the fursuit.
The 3-dimensional eyes add a lot of neat dynamics for looking in
different directions for photos. The markings were sewn in nicely and
appear to be symmetrical with one another. The soft foam nose is
enjoyable to poke people with and fun to touch.

---

BODY
The following questions ask you to explain how satisfied you are with
each feature of the body of the costume.
If you are reviewing armsleeves or legs/pants that are seperate from a
bodysuit, your answers would also go in this section.
(Appendages, such as hands, feet, tails, etc., are discussed later.)


---

Wear Satisfaction
Please describe how it is to wear this piece of your costume.
The fursuit's body fits flush against my body's curvy figure and is
quite comfortable to wear for prolonged amount of time. The seams are
strong enough to hold up through rigorous dance moves, but are weak
enough to break when it's appropriate to prevent the fur itself from
ripping. The fur is extremely soft, vibrant, and pretty easy to keep
brushed.

Appearance Satisfaction
Please describe how satisfied you are with how your costume piece looks
from the outside.
Markings appear to be symmetrical to one another and are defined quite
well, even through the thicker parts of the fur. The use of 3 different
length pile of fur gives this suit a pleasing appearance. The length of
arm and leg sleeves are perfect and don't show my underneath skin.

---

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.
Hands are easy to slip on and feet do need the use of a shoehorn, but
this is due to my request to use high top shoes for ankle support while
dancing. Hands are a bit big and to have a tendency to slip off if
moving very fast without gripping my fingers together. Both hands and
feet are very comfortable to wear. The outdoor soles to the feet are
very durable through rough terrain.

Appearance Satisfaction
Please describe how satisfied you are with how your costume pieces look
from the outside.
The hands and feet have enough fur going up the arms wrists and ankles
to prevent showing any underneath skin. Both hands and feet look perfect
size for the fursuit's overall size.

---

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.
Tail has a nice weight to it and gives off a desirable wag/bounce. The
belt loop seams did start to come loose after some time of owning the
suit, but that was a simple thing to sew again. The hole for the tail to
go through bodysuit could be smaller but is not a noticable takeaway
from the look of the suit.

Appearance Satisfaction
Please describe how satisfied you are with how your costume pieces look
from the outside.
Fur was trimmed quite nicely and works well with the rest of the suit.
Markings are displayed neatly and are easy to see. The curl to the husky
tail could be bigger but overall it's still an adorable mini curl.

---
