SO My boyfriend and I have are finally starting to get into the actually designing and construction stage of my tail
STILL A LONG WAYS TO GO THOUGH!!
anyway I told him about how the Tails from H2O uses a silicone base then glue individual scales onto the tail and he looked at me like i just asked him to build me a pyramid:rolleyes:.
Understandable. Making the tail itself will take a long time and then making, cutting out and gluing each individual scale will take forever and I want to me finished just as quickly as he does
so i brought up making a scale mold and using that. my only issue is that a lot of the tutorials i have seen, the scale molds come out clear as hell and i don't like that.
so is it possible to make a neoprene tails sheath for my legs and then using some industrial grade adhesive to glue the scale sheet to that to make my tail.
I would really appreciate some advice and insight on this gills and boys.
