Hello, everyone.

I recently bought my first monofin (http://www.ebay.com/itm/291178297670?_trksid=p2059210.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT) and am currently waiting for it, and I'm about to start on my first tail. I wanted to make this one very easy, so not a lot of labor will go into it, but I'm wondering if I've chosen the correct fabric for it.

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Shiny-Finger-Foil-4-Way-Stretch-Nylon-Spandex-Fabric-/151183537807?pt=US_Fabric&var=&hash=item23333db68f

This is the one that I chose (In the turquoise color because it was closest to green without being neon). What do you guys think? I could definitely use the help.

Thanks!

It looks fine, just be warned that foil and holograph fabrics tend to lose their shine pretty quickly.

Awesome :) And that's fine for this one, I think. Trial and error and such, y'know?

Thanks! I have to wait for my paycheck next week to get the fabric, but the monofin is on its way!
