Any interest in buying my latex sheets I've been making?

How many sheets would I need to make the body of the tail? Two, or just one? Sounds like an awesome price!

I have two of them, one for the front one for the back, they're made bigger so that you can cut what you need! Best way to make it your shape is to do the ceran wrap/duct tape mold of your body then cover that shape with the sheets

Is it already attached to neoprene? As in...just mold, cut, sew, paint? Darn your tail sold, else I would have you ship them all together for me! I get paid on Mon (or Tues?), would you be willing to wait till then for me? :)

It's not sewn on neoprene, you'd have to attach it to whatever material you'd like :)

take a look at some of the videos here (http://mernetwork.com/index/showthread.php?405-Andrew-s-Tail-Making-Journey&highlight=clinic). there's one where he costs the neoprene in latex before laying the fin down on it. this is what people seem to do.

i would think you would need to use the same kind of latex material though, which is a product called mold builders correct? as opposed to the rd407 from monster makers i mean.
