Wow noveli! That thing looks HEAVY! I really like the wavy veins on the fluke. <3
Noveli, that tail is just... wow!
And I love the pics too. Beautiful!
[QUOTE=Zephyr;39040]Mine just arrived today :) Since it's been a lifelong dream of mine to be a mermaid, there were lots of happy tears!
Zephir, I became a mer this summer, so I know the sentiment :)
Congrats!
I finished my spandex and sequin tail! My Photoshoot was yesterday but the pics won't be given to me until next week so this is what I have for now. Swims much better than my latex tail, and all the glued sequins stayed in place when I swam in it in the sea.

All the sequins were glued using e 6000, and I swam in the tail for about 3 hours in the open sea for an underwater shoot, all stayed in place. The occasional scale would come off here and there but it was mostly due to rough handling and scraping myself on the coral reef.

I love this tail. I've sadly only gotten to use it once so far- (I don't have a pool) but I adore it.
Here is one that I made for myself that was inspired by the H2O mermaid tails.

And a swim test of the tail!

ilonka, your white tail is breathtaking!! its so pretty!
jesse, thats such a great idea! maybe filling the part of the fin that goes down past the feet a little more though, but it looks really cool, and i like how in the pictures it looks even longer.
and atlantis, i love that picture :D
The painted tail in a river and a way to get around on land. ;)
