And another Sequin tail

[Gem Stone]

I haven't posted until now to make sure I wasn't going to back out, but I've ordered everything and figured I'm in too far to back out now so it's time to let you guys know. I've got my neoprene, half my scales, my monofin and the other half of my scales are on their way and will be here soon. I'm going to make a sequin tail using flat, not shell, sequins. it's going to be mostly silver, with patches of blue, green, and purple scales. As soon as my monofin gets here, I will start sewing.

I added this in the wrong place. can an Admin please move it? I feel really stupid. next time, no internet when I'm tired.

The pic kinda made me think about Rainbow Fish. :)

[sashiyoop]

[Kishiko]

Shouldn't this thread be on the "tailmaking" section instead of the "classifieds" section? That's confusing :confused:

[AniaR]

Yeah she put on her post it is in the wrong section by accident and asked Adkins to move it lol

I was really tired and didn't pay attention. I realized too late that I was in the wrong section.

as far as an update, I'm waiting on my monofin to get here

Gem stone, do you think it will be done by May?

[Gem Stone]

I can try really hard

[Gem Stone]

I've cut out the neoprene and have started sequinning. I'm not that far yet because I'm both gluing and sewing, but it's looking great. I'll upload a picture soon

Wow, this looks really pretty so far, and we've only seen the scales!

[Mermaid Pickles]

Girl, we need together and work on our tails together. Oops, I'm letting my Southern show. :p

[Gem Stone]

OK, I haven't updated this in a while so yeah, here's where I'm at now. 22658

[Cadence]

Wow this looks great! I love the way the silver scales are catching the light!

[Gem Stone]

Sorry for the terrible lighting and camera-ing. I did not realize how shaky that came out looking

[Gem Stone]

UPDATE! i'm done with side one of my tail. starting side two tomorrow! and I'll get a picture up as soon as I discover a better way to take a picture of a shiny reflective tail. maybe I won't be taking this one in the ocean around predators that like shiny things.

[Gem Stone]

OK, so a terrible occurrence befell my tail and it is being shifted from a sequin tail to a painted neoprene with scars. anyone wanna help me come up with stories for the scars?

[Mermaid Wesley]

Well you got lost in a jellyfish forest! Or got caught in a fishnet!

Sad news. this tail died before ever getting it's first water test. It was a good learning experience though. Good news, I did make a new spandex tail that I will be showing soon

[PearlieMae]

Oh noes! What happened?

[Rebekah.fish]

What happened to it? What did u do with it?
