So these are the two scale patterns I'm deciding between. I can't decide which one I like better so I thought I would open it up to discussion. What do you guys think?

Just to be clear, the black diamonds are #1 and the green hexagons are #2

it depends, I have seen them both done on tails. The one of the left ends up looking more like scales, I find the one on the right almost looks like bubble wrap :p

I would have to agree with Raina.

I like them both, but if the right one looks like bubblewrap, then I'd much rather have the left.

I like them both, but I think I like the second one more. It looks like fish scales.

The left one. I think the one on the right, looks too boxy.

Bubble wrap doesn't belong on tails unless it's being shipped. 1st one.

From the picture, I like the one on the left. But it depends on how you stretch it to use it. I would test both and stretch them to your desired shape and then see what you like. Just a thought! What ever you decide is going to be wonderful!

They're both good options. I think I'd lean toward #2. Its not as common, and I think it does look like scales.

For anyone who hasn't seen a tail with a hexagonal pattern, here's a photo from Emily Angelfish's website:

I like the diamonds better, but I think it's just 'cause I'm a reptile fan.
