PearlieMae, PLEEEEEEEEASE????
You could even make different types of scales, I know you made yours with shells as molds, so there could potentially be all sorts of special/limited edition scales! And I mean, having a bunch of scale pendants in the same colours as your own tail... how neat would that be? You could wear them in your hair, scatter them throughout a top, put them on a keychain or on your bag...
Or, my favorite idea - get a buttload of scale pendants in your tail's colours, and give them to kids/clients/friends/etc. as magical mermaid gifts!!! :swoon:
You guys have ruined my Merfest surprise! :doh:
I have been thinking about this for a while!
PS: I HATE the book 'Rainbow Fish'...
I think it would be best if we all forgot about the G20. Our PM is a pathetic, bumbling fool.... -.-;;;

OH NOES! :cry:It's just that we love your work so much, PearlieMae!!! But really, your scales are just too perfect, everyone wants some!
Nope, from my Papaw:

EDIT: WOW OMG I DID NOT KNOW THAT PIC WAS SO BIG
EDIT AGAIN: There. Decent size now. LOL.
Oooh, another quick scale pendant idea - you could make limited edition sets (or repeating sets, depending on what various mers feel like) of mer's tail colours, and people could collect certain mer's scales...
(um, yeah, I collected a lot of Pokemon and Digimon as a kid... and I just like collecting, period - it's a fun hobby, and this would be a relatively low-space-consuming collection)
Melaina, sorry we got off track here...this is what we do when you are on the other side of the world, sleeping! (Annwyn! Get to bed! ;) )
I am totally onboard with the scale pendant idea!
I really like the scale pendent idea! I also love how the tail is coming cannot wait to see more!!
YESYESYES! THOSE SCALES! Melaina you are SO lucky!
Yay! :D ooh, speaking of scales, I haven't figured out what I want my top to be!
If I do decide to have a "one piece" tail, would I need to extend the duct tape dummy?
You can do it in two pieces, just make sure you mark your bellybutton (on both pieces so I can line them up), bewbies, waist, sides...and use a tape measure to measure around your neck, from nipple to nipple. You can draw a neckline on it as well for the coverage you want. :)
The more precise, the better I can customize!
I'm on board for the PokeMae Charm Necklaces
Pearlie Mae necklaces? Yes, Yes, Yes, Yes, Yes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Holy Shark Pearlie! F, O, M actually all of them amazing! The opal is spectacular! So much true care and detail goes into your methods!
Melaina, please let me know when the scale samples get there! I have no idea how long it will take to get to you!
I heard about the terrible storms out by you! I hope you are okay!
:mermaid kiss:
Thanks Pearlie, we are fine! :) It was pretty insane though - all the cars along our street are missing their windscreens, and most of the houses have broken windows. We were lucky to be living on the lower floor of a two story unit, with trees and other buildings fairly close by, so the tennis ball sized hail stones didn't manage to break any of our windows. I got hit in the leg by one, though, while standing well over 4 metres undercover!
Wow! I'm glad you weren't killed! :phew:
No one was seriously injured as far as I know, which is fortunate!
On another note, I will be going up to my parents' place tomorrow afternoon, which is where my mail is delivered, so I'll see if the scales have come! :)
I am sooooo excited for you to see them! I hope they live up to expectations!
Thanks! I love those!
I hadn't thought about new scale shapes. What did you have in mind? There seems to be a lot of pointy scales, lately.
Haha that's what I had in mind. Maybe something pointy but with a Pearlie Mae edge to it. Lol

I know this is boring, but I'd personally like to see your take on plain rounded scales. I'm not a huge fan of textured scales personally, although yours have me falling in love with other people's tails
There seem to be plenty of folks doing round scales, my scales tend to lose depth without texture to catch highlights.
I think your scales look amazing, I hope to see more styles on the future! Some based off different types of fish scales would be super cool
