Ooo! Did you draw that? Looks gorgeous, both tail and drawing!

Btw, what is the name of the glue that you have smooshed all inside the fluke?

No I didn't draw this, it was a picture I saw on FB and the glue I used is called 'Tarzan Grip' :)

Well I discovered that the Tarzan grip glue is only good for gluing the neoprene not the monofin. Oh well I will have to stick to using silicone :)
