Hi mer-folks,
So, in about 2 weeks my husband's special effects friend is going to be making me my custom made tail. I'm sure he already knows this info, but I'm trying to do as much research as possible to help the process along.
I want my tail to be made of silicone and wanted to know when it is time to have the tail painted, what are the best kinds of paint for this? I'm thinking of having a blue/green color with purple shading and possibly silver flecking throughout to create a fish shimmer effect under the water. I don't know much about arts and crafts so any recommendations about this would be awesome! Thank You!!
