    The scalemail doesn't weigh you down any? Or are you just a really strong swimmer? I was planning on making a tail that has a sea dragon theme and I though of using black scalemail, but I don't want to be dragged down.

    I am naturally very buoyant so the additional weight wasn't an issue for me. I had to drop a 2 pound weight down my tail just to stay under a few seconds to get some photos. I am inspired to make a tail with the aluminum scales. I would use neoprene, which I believe would counteract the weight a bit. If you aren't naturally buoyant a tail done in scales could be too heavy
