I did :D It's soooo cute! Very princess barbie

Wow it looks really cool! It looks like cotton candy!! Did u hand paint it or use an airbrush. If so, what type of airbrush and how did u thin it down?

ok, just saw that big blister from the Oceanika. LOL I used mine 2 days in a row last week for about 2 hours each, plus did my aerobics class 2 days and I have 3 huge blisters. I could barely walk, as they are on my ankle bones and by the big toe. It has been a week and they still look awful. I was even wearing the neoprene socks b/c the fin is slightly too big. Is this normal to get blisters? LOL

I used this air brush.

I thinned the paint with lighter fluid.

Mind if I ask what kind of paint you used? :]

nope. I used pigment mixed with silicone.

Also on the pink tail I used a kind of silicon called Gel 10.

Beautiful! How much are you selling your neoprene tail an also your first silicone tail for? I'd you're still selling them? You did a grey job for being so fast too! :)

I'm not there yet.

I am still not sure about a lot of things. I am still making too many mistakes to feel confident enough to make something for someone else.
