I emailed them about the dragon scales and Tyler said they were offered so I'm definitely getting my tail in the dragon scales [emoji7][emoji7][emoji7]

Oh Happy Birthday! Totally understandable if you are busy at this time. Enjoy your birthday! (and make sure to shoot that video soon after ;) )
Wow Felecia, the colors look so pretty!
And I've hit a year and still no email haha
I wonder if my emails are not going through for some reason...especially if other people are getting a hold of them.
Oi..I hate waiting even if it is worth it. The suspense is killing me!
One the same subject, I hit 404 yesterday and I put a picture of my tail counter app on my instagram as a joke with the comment "Error 404, Tail not Found."Quote:

Beautiful tail, Felicia!
If the lunar koi fluke is the one that's mine (which I believe it is the one being referenced) I can get you an example photo a bit later.
Edited to add:
I just thought I'd mention that I'm genuinely unsure if the lunar koi fluke is available as an order. If it is the fluke I'm thinking, it was a custom fluke, and I believe only my tail and Raven's have it? I just don't want people to get their hopes up because I'm uncertain of her policy on that. x.x
So many new tails!!
What do the dragon scales look like? I was on a trip and missed some stuff, and I can't seem to find examples. The curiosity's killing me!
I know it was offered to me as an option before I settled on my design (this was before your tail was even finished though) and generally I haven't seen Raven make too many things exclusive. Kailani's fluke is the only thing I've seen that hasn't been on a tail since, but it did get modified into the butterfly koi fluke and I haven't really asked on her stance regarding either fluke so it's impossible to say. I'll ask though.Quote:

These were the first dragon scales, but there have been tails with them since... I think. I know it's defiantly an option:Quote:

Ok so quick question for all you full silicone merbellas out there, what type of bottoms do you wear under your tail? I've always worn the same bottoms under my tails, just simple swim booty shorts, but I've found that they catch my tail and I cant get it up all the way while wearing them. So what do y'all wear under there?
My friend wears stockings under hers. =)Quote:

I never really had that problem with my partial, but from what I've heard it happens it everyone. The only thing I've seen that seems to make it easier from what people say is G-strings (or Thongs for Americans)
I've worn my thongs under it a few times now and it definitely works better but I need a beach friendly option as well, and since we can't wear thongs on our beach I need a few other options
I'm on day 402, trust me the wait is worth it ;)
I don't have a Merbella, but I have a full silicone Finfolk and I found that my usual swim bottoms would catch. I found that tights (like the sheer kind) work well and I found some super smooth swim bottoms that work as well. Sheer and silky work for me!
I have dragon scales on both bums of my personal tail and the she creature :)
you gotta have the bottoms wet first, like soaked. and slop lotion on there. lol.Quote:

My tail has quite a loose fit, so I don't need to use lube and I can get it on with wearing some sheer tights! :)
My mum got a picture of me deep in thought lol I was debating whether to fight the tail the rest of the way up or just say screw it since it was just so my family could see me in it :P Mermaid problems, amiright??

I just picked up this top, it was made to match our she creature a while back. One time skyping I spotted it in the background and asked Raven if she was planning on selling it since she sold me the tail haha.

I know Tyler is planning on listing a bunch of pre made items on the page SOON to do a mermaid cave cleanup. So if you wanna get a top or head dress etc without the wait keep an eye on the page. He was gonna list this but remembered I wanted it so I paid and can't wait to have one that matches she creature :)
felicia, learning to put on a silicone tail is a learning curve. When madison julliet bought hers I talked to her for like 20 minutes at mermania psyching her up for the challenge it would be . lol Dont get discouraged. I always warn people, the blended waists are amazing but make it so much harder to get on over the butt!
It will look great with that tail

Well great, now I have to stalk merbellas and hope something fits me. Lol, there goes a few hundred.

I had been preparing myself to the challenge and its definitely not as hard as i had expected but there's a 12 inch difference in my butt to waist so that along with the blended waist is what gets me. When I wore my thong it took maybe 5 minutes to get it on but with my swim bottoms it took 15 ish but I know ill figure it out, I'm just use to neoprene/alex plus or fabric so its most definitely different. Luckily I have about 3 more months till summer so I have time to perfect everything before gigs start to really pick up!Quote:

Will it be on the fb or their etsy?
Usually, I believe they post it as an album of their Facebook. I'd like to know whether or not I should email them or Facebook message them though when it does get posted.

I should have a poorly edited video for you guys tomorrow or the next day depending on how tired I am after work!
They usually post to their page and say right on it how to best contact them. Don't sit and refresh lol. I'll give you the heads up

Yay felicia's video! I've been waiting to see it! And thanks raina, you're always saving the day lol.

Girrrrrrrrl, I feel you on the waist to butt ratio. It makes it so hard with the blended waist. I'm terrified of ripping it! My first swim in my tail showed a lot of my bikini bottom, so I'm feeling like I didn't get it all the way up as far as I could have as well. We are having similar issues for sure, and I'm sure with time and practice it will be smoother.Quote:

I have the same issue of butt-to-waist ratio and I've found with my FF tail that it's easier if I lube up my entire lower half, even just with sunscreen and water if I have nothing else on hand. I slip in a lot easier that way!
