Simply beautiful pearlie! I love it!
WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW!!! :D
You just gave me the chills, Pearlie!
I'm burning with excitement! LOL
This is going to look incredible!! :D
I know exactly how you feel! Last time I ordered silicone I was watching for the ups man all day and I met him at the truck :)
what monofin are you using? Just something to think about.....I used a foil in my first tail so the majority of my fluke has no support. I don't plan on making a fluke wider than my monofin again...it's just too tough to handle! (I fell over in the water once when I tried to lift my fluke over my head!)
OMG, you are CRAZY (in the good way off course)!!! Damn girl, you have no idea how talented you are. You are driving me insane, i can't wait to see the end result, seriously!!!
Pearlie this is just so lovely. I love the scalloped edge and the hearts in the middle! I can't wait to see how this looks sculpted! You are very inspiring and creative. :)
are you planning on creating the design by using ridges or grooves?
Oh my gosh, Pearlie, I am in love with your tail ideas. That fluke is going to be so awesome. I would have never thought to introduce the scallops of butterfly wings to a fluke! SO PRETTY!
Very creative and different! I know this will come out great;)

I work straight across from the beach. :) at the moment im doing colour samples for my fluke so i hope things go well. GOOD LUCK with the rest of your tail making Journey. its looking great. one thing ive learnt from you is another way for creating the barrier for the molds. i was doing it the hard way.... :( see you do learn something new everyday.... :)
Aaah the little hearts in the center are such a nice touch! Can't wait to see it completed!
Fincredimazing! I'm so excited for you! Your fluke looks like a fairy wing.
I can't wait to see the fluke! I've never seen one like it! Good luck!
I am in love with your fluke design! :swoon:
Woww i want to see more !
Don't worry about it, some ocean creatures are called "sea bugs" after all. XD Hope you stick to your vision, because it sounds like it will turn out amazing!Quote:

And WOW, your fluke design is incredibly awesome, and unique. It's like seeing..... one's personality in what one makes. It definitely comes through. ^__^
Just so you know.....silicone will take longer to cure if its cold! Even at 65 degrees it can take longer then the listed cure time. My house stays cold....and my silicone took forever to cure last week! You can apply mild heat....like a blow dryer on low if you have a spot that doesn't want to cure. I had a tiny spot on a fluke half that didn't want to cure but a little heat/some extra time and it was just fine :) I just wanted to let you know so you don't worry if its taking a long time! :)Quote:
