I'd like to see someone in a see through tail but with muscles and ligaments painted on. Like those T-Shirts or swimsuits, that have the body's muscles painted on.Quote:

I wonder if anyone's made a purposely camouflaged tail. I know some blue tails accidentally blend into the water, but I imagine if you were amazing at picking fabrics, painting your tail, and found a crazy talented photographer you could look like a floating torso. That would be very interesting
I have seen camo spandex fabric used for a tail. I cant recall who made it.
All of my tails are black, though they are accented with other colors on the fluke. I've found that black has a tendency to 'erase' details; you can see my scale patterns in most pictures, so it just looks like a flat black surface. Plus side! Dirt doesn't show up all that much on my tail, which is nice. My cats' fur on the other hand....
Ive seen a few white tails, and I always adore them! I haven't seen many pink of pastel tails, but if I remember correctly Momo is making a tail with both that looks gorgeous.
They make underwater camo neoprene wetsuits for spearfishing...Quote:

Here is one in action (it would work better without the black bottoms)

Tail ideas I haven't seen yet:
denim mermaid tail !
mermaid tail made out of jacket patches /quilting
mermaid tail made out of playing cards
Mermaid tail made out of beach trash
WALL PAPER MERMAID TAIL!
Mermaid tail made out of stolen office supplies! lol
(most of these ideas are in no way realistic)
I kinda ran away with the idea of mermaid tails made with random things... hence wall paper, and stolen office supplies... lol

Lol at my original question!!! Look how far we've deviated from it, and the ideas that have come up!
Well it is still along the same 'theme' ......maybe... haha
Rare colors for mermaid tails:
Silver: I've only seen one all silver tail. Even as an accent it's pretty rare.
Brown and bronze: I'd love to see brown as the main color instead of an accent.
Yellow: most go for gold instead of yellow, but yellow really pops in the water. Think of the yellow tang!
Muted yellow-green: common on real life fish, not so much in mermaids.
I just laughed out loud when I read "floating torso". That honestly would be awesome.
I have a brown tail. I call it my selkie tail and it's made of stretch velvet. I'll have to find a picture of it.Quote:
