Cool cool! Soon you'll have an elegant tail and a sassy tail!
Merman Arion Gorgeous tail!!
Anyone heard from the girls recently? My tail is in production and I haven't heard anything, hoping they are ok :-/
I don't know... reexamining their facebook I am assuming they're alright. Just busy catching up after the NC Merfest.
On another note: that new fluke they're teasing at... oh my good golly gumdrops! I am just adoring it.

Yep. I guess I'm out of the loud a smidge lol. But seriously? Loving it. I'm watching their facebook page waiting for more of their pictures on it.Quote:

I see the pictures on the thread. I'm kinda hoping to find a video of it in action
I'm sure Twig will post videos of it and there's plenty of photos up a couple pages back in this thread.
Also, right after I posted this they updated their page... good to know, didn't know they were still out of town :P
I think they stopped in Minnesota after NCMerfest before heading back to Hawaii.
Yeah, from what I gather, they stopped in MN for a family visit and belated Christmas after Merfest, but I think they're heading back to Hawaii in a couple days. I hope they finish working on your tail really soon Maressa, I can't wait to see how it turns out. Your design is so beautiful! I'm sorry it got delayed :(
Thanks Cyanea, that's sweet of you to say.
Previous customers, I'm in a bit of a pickle. The last time I talked to the girls at length (via Skype) was Dec 12, and the consensus was they would try to finish it and bring it to Merfest, but we agreed that if they needed more time that was fine as long as I had the tail by January 20 (I have an event Jan 24, this Saturday). I got a message from them when they got back to HI Jan 14 saying updates were on the way, then another from Bryn after Arion messaged her saying that Abby is working solo on the tail in HI and she would get Abby in touch with me ASAP... but I haven't heard from Abby. I don't want to message them to death, and I don't know what point the tail is in its completion.
I've looked into renting a tail for the event, and I can either rent a Mertailor for $500 or drive three hours south to borrow one from a closeby mer for $200... both of which I can't really afford.
I'm completely stressed and I don't know what to do. And quote from my boyfriend, I'm "being annoying" by asking so many questions and sending so many messages, but I'm facing my first event that I've planned for six months with no tail or a huge sum of money shelled out for a replacement.
What should I do??? I feel bad even posting about it, but I'm at a loss and I need help or advice.
You have no reason to feel guilty about posting here or about messaging them. You are being remarkably patient with Finfolk!
If I were in your shoes, I would forget about the silicone tail for this gig and whip up a quick spandex tail. Or buy one from Finfun for $60. You could make it impressive without spending much money, and your clients will not know the difference! That is honestly what I would do. Go easier on yourself for this one gig!
Thanks Galene. That is a fine idea except that it's a faire with three other mermaids who all have silicone tails. I do have a (pretty hilarious) fabric one that I made years ago, but I'm worried that it will look completely ridiculous next to the Merbella and Finfolk the other girls have @_@ (Cinderella mermaid much?)Quote:
