Hi everybody :)
Finally I'm going to buy my Finis Wave monofin soon, so this week or the next I'll start making my fabric tail!
I was thinking about something simple for now, just for familiarizing with tailmaking and sewing machines xD (I'm planning to do at least three fabric tails before starting using silicone)


So, this is the fabric (i call it "dolphin skin")

I hope to enjoy this experience :)

Well, it's not really perfect, but as first attempt I'm pretty satisfied :)

Very pretty!

Will you paint it or leave it as it is, so it resembles a dolphin even more?

thank you all :)

@caltuna I don't think I'll paint, I like it this way xD I could do it with one of the next fabric tails I'll make
