Well, thank you everyone for all your efforts! The link did work for me, but the pictures weren't quite so big! :mermaid kiss:

It kinda looks like a lion-fish tail (just from what I could see there). But oh my gosh! It's so great to see Raven in the water again <3 She really is one of the most graceful people I've ever seen in the water.Quote:

Wow! So cool so see some behind the scenes stuff!
Yes it's her new lionfish personal tail. I don't think it's quite finished like she'd like, she always makes her own personal tail as franken tails out of left over pieces. I know she's been working on this one bit by bit for 6 months or so. Just here and there. This is a behind the scenes video of some work she got to do at Weeki :) So nice to see her in deep water again instead of just the tank, she really shines.
And yes, that might be a new fluke, and yes there may be a few other mermaids in the future with that fluke ;)
Ooooh! Sounds exciting, Raina. :D What a beautiful video--I could watch something like that for hours, LOL. Weeki looks so beautiful and Raven fits right in...
Oof. I love it. I covet it. I want it.Quote:

That video is lovely; I was hoping that Raven would do a lionfish tail and it looks very natural!
I just replied to an email Raven sent me in today's noonday hour; I think Raina's tail will be done before mine, because Raven is still perfecting her new dragon scales (she offered to do rounded or Merbella scales to get it to me sooner, but I always like to see her artistry at work). She also appears to have found a way to work the blended option into my tail, which I find amazing! I am patiently excited! :mermaid kiss:
Yes we were chatting about that and I decided to opt out of the dragon scales as much as I think they'd look amazing, I am so rough with my tails and using them so much I was worried I wouldn't be able to repair them on my own. My tail design is complicated for me- but not quite as complicated as yours ;) hehe so I do think mine will be whipped up first.
I just wanna see some dragon scales!! are they similar to the belly of the sea dragon tail?
I realized that I had never shown you guys a video of me swimming in my tail! So I pulled out the GoPro and had Nautia film a few shots. This was at the end of my swim so I was tired as all get out, plus the GoPro battery hadn't charged and was mostly dead. Still, these three shots made a decent short, short video of the tail. I promise I'll do a better one eventually!
P.S. MerEmma, the scales on my back underneath the dorsal are the Dragon Scales. c;
It's insane how beautiful that paintjob is.
Your tail is just SO amazing, JEEZE. STOP IT, TAIL. STOP BEING SO GORGEOUS. <3
her lionfish tail has dragon scales.
I can't wait to see a full tail of them though, I've only seen little details of it from far away. :P
Merin, I can't stop staring at the tail!
yeah it is a full tail, it just has a variety of different sculpts intertwined to make it "dragon". That's her formally named calypso fluke. Only a few clients have it so far and I will have it too :) I'm excited. My scale sheets were curing yesterday :) I'm dreaming of mermaid tails. I am thinking my public event on Saturday will likely be my last public event with rapidash.
That gold fluke is huge! I love it
You swim like a pro.
