Hello from Florida's First Coast!

[Arthfael]

I always considered myself a cosplayer first when it comes to my costuming, but now I have fallen in love with the idea of mermaiding.

It all started with a family member who works for Disney told me about how they used to have a submarine ride in a lagoon with fish and women summing around in mermaid tails. He told me how men would wrap dollar bills around quarters and toss them to them, and the women would splash into the water off a big sunning rock and swim down to get them. I wished I could have seen it.
Then I saw Meenah cosplayer at a convention who had found a way to make her grease paint waterproof so she could swim in costume.

Then the nail in the coffin was a thought I had of swimming in costume at a spring a new hours south. (Jenny Springs)

I have always swam in dolphin kicks and pinniped sweeps and curves. My family always dropped kids in the pool and you were expected to teach yourself so you could keep up with the cousins. This resulted in a more natural instinctual maid of swimming that made learning strokes difficult.

I miss visiting family in the Abacos. I could swim with fins there.

Here the water is too murky and we have too many bull sharks. You have to be able to get on shore quick when one comes around. So swimming in a tail will be reduced to pools at the rec and conventions, and trips to the springs.

Hi Arthfael! Welcome. I saw those live mermaids in the Lagoon with the submarine as a very little boy in CA. I was never the same afterward! lol Hence, here I am...in a tail. ;)

Hello and welcome

[Arthfael]

I already have two designs I want to do, and one still conceptualizing...

And let's face it, it'll be awesome to swim at convention hotel pools with Sea-Dweller-High-Blood Homestuck cosplayers.

As long as I don't get hit on by Cronus of course. ;D

I've been hooked!
