New Mermaid!

[starry]

Hello! My name is Stella/Coco and I'm starting my journey of being a mermaid. I've always grown up near the ocean and with a love for it, while appreciating mermaids at the same time.

I've always liked the idea of mermaids/mermen/merfolk as well because you can still be beautiful and elegant without fitting into traditional beauty standards. I'm plus size and half black, so it's always been difficult for me to feel confident in other parts of my life.

Right now I'm in the process of making my own mermaid tail with a galaxy print, mostly to mess around with in a pool, and reorganizing/decorating my room to be more ocean-themed. My dream tail, though, is probably an iridescent koi fish one.

This community looks beautiful and welcoming, and I hope to become a great part of it!

[mermaid mazu]

Welcome. What are you making your tail out of? I'm in the beginning stages of mine as well. Mine is a neoprene/latex hybrid and it is koi inspired :)

[starry]

I believe it's just lycra fabric! I'm just practicing with patterns right now and seeing how well I can move in different ways. Also it's the only fabric I really have around right now, and it's pretty enough!

Good luck on your koi tail, though! I'm sure it's going to be gorgeous!!!

[Sapphire Mermaid]

Welcome! As a recent newbie myself, I can say that the community is great! There are so many things here that are so helpful for someone starting out! I am part way through my first tail too! When you get to your Koi tail, be sure to make a thread in the Tailmaking section so people can follow along with your progress!
Welcome to the wonderful world of Mermaiding!:cheerleader:

I actually started a thread today with what I've got so far, including my failures lol. I'll post progress on it as I go forward.

As for your fabric not being pretty, get an airbrush and design it however you want

[mermaid mazu]

Sapphire, how are you making yours? How far along are you?

[Sapphire Mermaid]

Mine is a water resistant 2 way stretch base, lycra on top with tonnes and tonnes of sequins! I am not very far along. I have a thread in the tailmaking section! I'm not very far along as work has been horrible lately!

Mazu, is there any type of airbrush/paint you recommend or that you use personally?
I actually do like the print of mine, galaxy, for the main body, but I do want to airbrush the fins/fluke eventually, thank you for the suggestion!

[mermaid mazu]

I have a small airbrush that my husband got me for Christmas. In the instructions it just says any liquid no thicker than milk. I personally have always just used watered down acrylic craft paint. It holds to fabric nicely even through repeated machine wash and dry.
