Comments from the SpaceSuit Design Contest 2008:
- Judge "A" says:
- ...a nicely detailed spacesuit with an additional hand attachment that provides finer motor control than the stock gloves, it lacks the consideration given to SnowBuni's ears that the other entries in the contest do. Poor SnowBuni has to tuck her ears into her helmet. I do like the detail behind the helmet itself - providing a place for communications, sensors, etc. I'm not sure what Zugbert is looking at – this isn't one of those Dirty Pair outfits.

- Teri Wood - Mechanical Hand
- If I were judging these pinups strictly on artistic chops, Teri and Jatina would be taking top honors. This is a marvelously composed illustration with great chiaroscuro effects (ooh, snooty art school term!). Snowi's suit looks a lot like current ones in use, but in a way its very fidelity is a drawback, in that her ears look uncomfortable plastered down the sides of her head. I liked the "mouse gloves" line and the use of a rarely seen character, Zugbert, though he seems a bit off-model and cramped. Still, what a great-looking drawing.
