Finfolk tail about to go into production but cannot commit to colours! Please help!

[Mermaid Jessica Pearl]

Hi everyone,
I haven't been very active on here (mainly stalk and read everything but am starting to try and talk more!)

I am a mermaid from Perth Western Australia, my partner in crime mermaid amelia and I started doing this for fun and have both made a number of tails each now (I am on tail number 3 right now, have two spandex ones and a neoprene one. First two with cut down oceanikas and one with a home made monofin (that actually gives better propulsion than my oceanika).

Anyway things have taken off for us and we want to make this our life so we have ordered and paid off finfolk tails which go into production VERY SOON. Amelia has an awesome design that she loves. But I can't commit to anything and am starting to panic.

First of all this is what I look like atm:
20024
20027
20026

I definitely want to be a green mermaid still. But there are so many green tails out there and I haven't been able to come up with something really unique and me. And I haven't come up with something I see and LOVE.

I'm thinking of maybe becoming more blue/green or teal. With splashes of maybe EITHER bright orange, pink or lavender. Or maybe more of a mint green. But other friends insist the bright green suits me more.

Please help!

Also people who ordered and received tails did you have a love at first sight moment with your design? Or were you unsure about it and then felt better once you received your tail?

Oooh nice!
I am also thinking maybe spots (as my partner amelia is stripy and I loove spots). But does anyone thing swirls would look silly?

[Mizuko]

Hi Jessica Pearl!! :D
I have to admit I love the third design in the rows (the green with blue spots and yellow/gold accents!)

[Mermaid Jessica Pearl]

Mermaid amelia designed the top row ones for me. I like it but for some reason it reminds me of australia day. Green and Gold and blue. hahaha.

[Mermaid Wesley]

I like the last on the top row I think. Its gorgeous.

[Merman Arion]

I like the last one on the lower right. It would look amazing underwater! :)

[Fifi Tigg]

I love the fourth one on the top row :)

[Morticia Mermaid]

Of course, I send it to you on FB and NOW MN decides to load. Blah. I did a bit of a redesign of the second design in the top row :) Added in some of the colors you wanted

20050

Kinda a rough design, but the basic idea is there :)

I just have to say, all of your coloring are completely gorgeous. I'm also indecisive on my tail coloring except red hues... that's as far as I've gotten with myself and time is ticking!!

By the way, I absolutely love your hair Jessica Pearl, and I think light blue, minty green, and a splash of dark blue for you!! It would match your incredible hair color :)

I love mint and lavender together!

How on earth did you do that? That is AWSOME!!

[Fifi Tigg]

I tint the tail in a colour and then play with the tone and intensity :)

[Ayla of Duluth]

you make it sound so easy :)

hahaha, I never thought of it like that! XD But you are right! haha!

[Mermaid Jessica Pearl]

Thanks for all of the feedback guys. I had almost completely decided on the lavender and green. But then today I did some sketching with some cheap pencils and now I have become really indesicive again.

This is what I came up with:
20065
20066

[Mermaid Wesley]

I get it lol. Deciding on colors is hard. But don't forget that the people at finfolk will make it beautiful. They've done quite a few tails that (in my opinion) have weird color palates, and they looked great! So what I'm saying is: I still like purple and lavender but of the new ones I like the third in each row best.

I LOVE the fourth one!

[Mermaid Kelda]

I love the second on the bottom row! Coral/blue/green look lovely together :)

[Mermaid Jaffa]

I love the 4th one! It has all the colors you mentioned too.

[Mermaid Wesley]

Oh wait I like the fourth one too!

[Mermaid Jessica Pearl]

Hahaha! Thanks guys! Heaps of people like the fourth one!

[Echinacea]

The fourth one gives you the bright greens you said you liked and that people say look good on you, plus some blue to go with your hair, and a splash of coral to make it pop! Looks like a winner! :)

[Mermaid Amelia]

Jess how's it all coming along? Did you get the other design I emailed you? I think that the mint green and lavender is going to be awesome!!

Still obsessing. But yes I did get your email!

[Mermaid Jessica Pearl]

So after a eureka moment with help from fifi, this is what I have come up with...
20586

[MerEmma]

That's going to look SO good with FinFolk! Really like the color scheme combined with that fluke. :D

[Mermaid Wesley]

A far as the line color on the fluke, I like the more subtle one. I think it looks more fishy

It looks epic! I cannot wait to see this tail come to life! :yay:

[Mermaid Evolet]

i really can't wait to see this tail once its finished and in the water. It's going to look so awesome!! :mermaid kiss:

[Mermaid Saphira]

I was going to say that my favorite (in the first photo set) was the 2rd in the top row, but WOW that design there is gorgeous! I can't wait to see it! :D

[Mermaid Jessica Pearl]

Thatnks for all of your comments everybody! I'm so nervous!
