It's GORGEOUS, Syrena!!! I couldn't take it anymore, I keep seeing such beautiful stuff from Finfolk, I just contacted them about getting a tail based on the Portuguese Man O War.

When I get my Finfolk tail, I hope to be graced by a GIF from Arion. <3
-
Aww, thank you all, you're all so sweet. *blushes*
So. Here's my unboxing video! Sorry for the excited voices and the narrow panel- that was the only way to film to fit the whole tail in. Much love! xxhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aApyX9O198A

AHHHHHHHHH! :D It looks AMAZING!
For the pelvic fins, all of them I've seen have not been stuck down but it may be that they decided to glue it down. It's SO pretty and it just matches you so well!
-
Thanks, MerEmma! Yeah, I almost wrecked my fins there, lol.
Oh and I realized- it helps A LOT to watch it in full screen!
-
Wow, it's freaking beautiful! Congratulations Syrena! :D Can't wait to see you in it! Looking forward to your swimming videos for sure!
-
Thanks, Winged Mermaid Iona! YOUR unboxing video remains one of my all time faves. ;) Hyperventilation FTW. And yes, hopefully today I'll manage to get it on. Grrrr.
Seavanna- that is SO exciting! Do you have pictures?
-
Emily and I just watched your unboxing video and your so lovely and the tail is absolutely stunning!:mermaid kiss:
-
These photos are priceless, cherish what is yours rightfully. You deserve it! Congrats! :3

Ah ah ah! I was hyperventilating for you, Syrena! Cod, I love unboxing videos!!! Makes me feel like I'm there! So, so exciting.
No, I don't have pictures yet of my tail plans as we are going to discuss what would be best for a Man O War tail over the next couple of months (my tail is slated for the end of November/beginning of December for production), but I made a Pinterest page with the colors I am looking for in the Man O War since they are translucent and can vary. I know they are going to make a dorsal fin that looks like the unique top shape and that I am going to have tentacle like ankle fins. I'll probably start sketching ideas soon.
But seriously, your tail is fintastic and I can't WAIT to se you swim in it! *bounces*. And it is so cool that you are the first one in Sungapore to sport such awesomeness!

Syrena,
your tail is a work of art! It's absolutely amazing! I can't wait to see pictures of you in it!
-
Syrena, blalrgh sorry I didn't get back to you soon enough with more details about lube/putting the tail on and stuff (had other things on my mind). It seems you've gotten it figured out already, but if you want to talk about it more you can message me again. Congrats on receiving your tail, it's stunning!

Aaahhhh it looks amazing on you! This is making me seriously consider ordering a tail from them, now that I have a job again... Eventually I think I'll own a tail from every maker, just cause I can't hold back when I see amazing tails like these o__o
-
OMG! It looks even better on you! I love really long flukes.

:thumbs-up: ahem...waiting for video...

I just came back and saw all these bootiful messages from all y'all (is that a phrase? lol). *emotional sniff* Thank you! It's been a bit of a rollercoaster ride - my beau and I spent an hour and a half the first time just trying to get the tail on me, and it hurt so much that I cried after that. But all my FB mer friends (you know who you are!!) were insanely encouraging, as were Abby and Bryn and a couple of my schoolmates-- so the next day I went down armed with some seeerious lube. And! I got into the tail in 15 minutes! Such joy.
It's extremely heavy - Finfolk tails generally look heavy because of their glorious big flukes, but mine is even heavier due to the extra length- so my ankles do hurt and I sink easily in this tail, but I think the beauty is worth the discomfort. Which I hope will pass.
And thank you, Merman Arion, for posting my pictures! :> I actually came on here intending to do just that, but I see you beat me to it. *winks* And I have absolutely no problems with that. Thank you for being a wonderful mer-brother.
PearlieMae - ...ikr?! I've been having lots of GoPro trubbel, so I'm working on that. Grr, technology! Why can't we all just have a videographer following all of us around, all the time?! ;)

"Why can't we all just have a videographer following all of us around, all the time?!
What, do you mean you DON'T???
And yes, y'all is a word if you are from the South (US)
Hey... why does your Singaporean accent sound like central California? ;)
