Then we took my old tail and we all went swimming so he could see what was wrong with it and he kept it after I left, he resized it and fixed it all up perfectly for the mermaid that bought it. And the money he made off of it went to the making of my new tail! I am not in the least bit worried about how this tail is going to turn out. I watched him paint a tail and saw his scale patterns and I'm convinced that his tails are going to be absolutely incredible! He is absolutely talented!
    I'm so happy to hear that you are getting a new tail!!! I'm glad you didn't give up on your mermaiding dream. I can't wait to see what your new tail looks like!

    So we sent off the Money order a few days ago, but it still hasn't arrived in Florida
    I've checked how long it should take for a letter from California to reach Florida and it should be any where between 2 to 7 days
    so hopefully it will be showing up tomorrow on the 11th or the 12th
    if not both my husband and whatever postal service h used are getting a piece of my mind, the piece with a bad temper and fangs to be precise
    Talked to Matt and he said he would inform me the instant it came in and start working the moment he had my measurements. so fingers and fins crossed

    I was wondering who was getting these fins! They look amazing, and the attention to detail is outstanding.

    I'm ecstatic and Matt isn't even fished with it yet.
    I can not wait to see the finished product with the purple highlights and star marks.

    Ooo! Purple just like your avatar!!! Are those little lumps bits of dirt on the fin ridges? Or bits of silicone he hasn't trimmed off yet?

    That's his basic tails? The fabric silicone one?

    I've only seen the unrestored flukes, I think I like yours a lot more! I'm liking all of his designs, though some of his scale sheets and find look a little rough. Your colors are gorgeous though, I can't wait to see it with all the little details added in.
