Tail making progress!

[Shaylee Moon]

So I was inspired by my dear friend Marinus to make my own tail! Here I will track my progress which will likely
Be sloooow. I will be working currently on two things: a less heavy travel tail and a full silicone
I will begin with the travel tail!
Still dont have any specific designs in mind however and im still thinking of ways to keep this tail lightweight but professional looking. For this tail I will be using a Mahina Merfin since thats just the spare monofin I have around and I do love how it moves!

Here are some picture of scales I have been working on while practicing sculpting and whatnot:

Thank you so much!!! I have been putting quiiiite some time on these! I wasnt all too sure how I felt about them at first but now that I look at them after finishing I do like them. Guess all I really needed was a break from working on them!

Yessss girl the taking a break part is super important especially with projects like these ones, I always feel super refreshed after a 24 hour brake and inspired!

Yeah! I was really surprised that after the break I felt like everything I did look so much nicer! So note taken for the future! Breaks are important.

Forever is a good way to think about it cause smoothing everything out WILL take forever, but amazing work sista
