Just a reminder that every approved custom producer on here has a page where customers can leave feedback and you can see what people who had customs thought of the process.
I've got a bunch of customs in the air spanning 3 different producers, but haven't seen most of the results yet, as they haven't been shot yet. I'll know mid-late Feb how they all turned out, assuming no delays. I don't want to give recommendations / non-recommendations until after the due date has passed and all three producers have delivered.
Message me and I can give you advice related to the whole process.
As an overall note, I think there ought to be some way for custom customers to connect with one another and also allow producers to rate / review the customer. That way If you've spent money on customs and message a new producer, they can see that you're someone who is actually going to pay for stuff so they'll know you're not a time waster.
