Features: Hair / Wig Concept Art Photos of Completed Product Overall Initial ContactSuper easy. I filled out a quote form on her website. She got back with me within a day. Maker CommunicationVery easy! LLM is always on top of replying to her clients. We communicated through DM, email, and telephone (note that LLM does not give out her number to her clients) She was very upfront on what she needed from me. And was always very reasonable. Project Completion TimeAs I previously stated, once I had paid my suit off, and she had reached me in her queue, She was quick to start and finish my suit for me. Overall Project QualityOnce I had gotten Roxy paid off, and LLM reached me in her queue, she worked very quickly on her. With amazing results! I’ve had Roxxy for four years now. I’ve worn her to several conventions for many hours. She’s head banged to music. Had her hair brushed many times. Has been pulled on and off, and has been a trooper for all of it! Her durability is phenomenal, with only a couple of very minor pop seams needing repair within the last couple of years. LLM was quick to do so! Even for an older suit, like her, she is holding up like a dream. There are no visible holes or imperfections. As stated before, if there was a problem, LLM was quick to fix it. She is visually appealing. And super durable! She’s very easy to put on and take an off. LLM definitely exceeded my expectations with all the hard work and attention to detail she put into making Roxxy for me! Components Head Wear SatisfactionRoxxy’s head is SUPER comfortable to wear! She is is not loose or tight. Just the right amount of padding on the inside to where it isn’t squeezing my face. She’s lined completely on the inside. Which makes her very smooth and cozy. Nothing sticks out or pokes me. The head is lined with headliner material. Which helps keep her cool for extended periods of time. I’ve worn her for serval hours at conventions (5+ hours at a time) without needing to remove her. The ventilation is fantastic! My mouth and nose sits right at the mouth opening. Allowing for great ventilation! The vision is pretty broad. With the typical blind spots in the middle and to both sides. But still allowing a very decent vision range! Overall, she is EASILY one of the most comfortable suits I’ve ever worn in my 15+ years of suiting! Visual SatisfactionSymmetry is great! Roxxy is quite a looker! There are a couple of angles that look better than others (as with most suits) But, overall, she is beautiful! The shaving is even. I’ve not noticed any bald spots. The fur used is very soft and high quality. She is easy to brush. Her hair take maintenance. Which is to be expected. I’ve used methods to keep is manageable. So, grooming her is a cinch! Her hair is attached very well. Even with the 4 years of combing her hair and head banging, she’s honestly shed very little. Roxxy was given LLM’s signature sassy expression! She has several angles I’ve found while wearing her that provide a variety of expressions. Ranging from sassy and proud, to calm and mellow. Her eyes are follow me/3-D. Allowing for even more character when wearing her. LLM was able to match the concept art to a near “T”. With the only minor change we decided on was using a more off-white color for her under pelt instead of the fawn color in the reference. LLM went above and beyond to make sure her hair completely matched the reference sheet. With this being the first Fursuit head She had made with hair like Roxxy’s, she researched different methods and was able use them in a way that would work for Roxxy’s big 80s hair. I couldn’t have dreamed for a better result! I’ve never owned a suit. I’ve been more proud of! Tail Wear SatisfactionRoxxy’s tail is very soft and light. Very easy to wear and put on. It’s very neat and clean. The fabric is the same that was used on her head, so it’s very high-quality. I’ve had no issues with it. LLM was kind enough to insert a foam core at the base when she started using that method. That way the tail held its form at the top, and laid more flatly against my body. Visual SatisfactionAs stated above, the tail fits great! I it lays very well against my body, and looks very nice with the outfits I wear with Roxxy. The Fur lays neatly, and is not choppy at all. The Tail provides a nice sway when walking. The tail is very basic, and so was very easy to replicate from the concept art.
