Raven slaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaayyyyyyyed with her response. I may have actually cackled at the "If this is terrible customer service then we are not the makers for you and I am okay with that :)" part.

Hehe thanks. All of its true. If I ever had the opportunity to work with Raven... :yay::drool::dance::biting nails::fallover::meditation:

Fun fact: It takes a peacock 3 years to become fully feathered with all of those pretty, long display feathers. Beautiful things take time and patience and they are sooo worth it!

That's a perfect comparison!

I'm SO glad I held trough and got a chance to order from Raven again! No other tailmaker would do to my standards when it comes to a mermaid tail. And after all thesz years the angler fluke really grows on me. ❤️ I really must admid it's getting hard again now i'm so close. I keep checking my email - u never know if it's an email from Raven xD . BUT I don't send any email out or asking questions! Just paitiently waiting :)

the end is always the worst!!!

Guys!! I got a sketch!! I'm so excited!! There is a few things I wanna change but I'm sooo happy :D

Two things: Michelle's tail is on fire! :baduntss:
second: someone call 911, Maya just got :what's the word?: BURRRRRNED!!!!

been busy with school so I haven't been able to post...but the new gold/teal/blue one is mine! I'm keeping quite about it on my FB page so I can make a big to-do about releasing it on XMAS, but you all are like fam here so I can pre-celebrate a bit with you all.

ITS IN THE MAIL! =D

Here are a couple more pics of the back and top that weren't on the merbella page. :)

It's gorgeous!! 8D I can't decide which I love more, the top or the tail. And it's great to see another example of the Merbellas scales!

This is going to look so great on you!!

Sooooo pretty! I think this design is simple, but unique! The color combo makes the scales pop out so pretty! ��❤️
Thank you for sharing your pictures with us! And don't forget to make an unboxing video! :cheerleader:

I just thought it was the classic. :\ My tail's fluke shape looks like that.

It's the revamped Merbella fluke, I asked about it last time I spoke to her. Same basic look and feel, just newer to reflect her progress as an artist and better skills.
Here's the original fluke on one of her earliest tails:

And Aurelia's Fluke:

I'm curious, if you do a more basic design, like her classic, do you have to wait as long to get your tail? The classic is my dream tail. I love it, but waiting years to get it would be difficult. I'm almost 40, have a chronic illness that may make mermaiding impossible in a few years. I'm just wondering if a Merbella dream is feasible for me.

You know, there is one thing I've always wondered about...

What would Raven's thoughts be on doing a smooth-skinned/scaleless tail? If I were to ever get the money for a second Merbella tail (the first tail would be my Mersona, of course), I'd love to get a tail based off an orca. But... Orcas don't have scales, soooo. :I

I've only seen one other major tailmaker make an orca tail, and that was MerTailor... And I really didn't like how he painted that one.

That would be interesting to make for sure!
