This is the very first tail I've done with printed fabric (which I created myself digitally).

I had it printed at a local sublimation printing workshop. I think there are online options to have something like that done too.

That's so cool! The colors look great!

Brandie, I think someone posted something in another thread about spoonflower.com. they do custom printed fabrics, including Lycra.

I knew about spoon flower, I just wasn't sure if that's what was use. :) it's really nice.

I'm trying to make a tail with spoonflower right now. I think the largest size for an image on Lycra is 36"x56", so I wasn't able to make the tail with just two pieces of fabric. It will take four pieces- the two sides of the sleeve, and the two sides of the fin. I'm curious if other screen printing companies can do larger pieces.
