[edited the post: I finished the alterations (fluke became smaller coz it was too fragile like that big way; and put the new pics - and put all informations into one section) ]
Hello Guys,
I want to sell my self-made Turquoise-Gold mermaid tail. Not perfect, but unique (I think).
Spent more than a year creating it but lost the interest and the elan, maybe another mer could use it more, for photoshoot or anything. (*20-02-'17: also, I lost some weight yeeey ^^ so its getting too big)
So tried to measure as accurate as possibble:
around waist: 94 cm ~ 37"
bellybutton line: 103 cm ~ 40,5"
around bottoms 'highest': 107 cm ~ 42,1"
around under bottom: 101 cm ~ 39,7"
knee line: 70 cm ~ 27,5"
underknee line (where the thinnest): 69 cm ~ 27"
calf, where widest: 67 cm ~ 26,3"
lenght (measured on the front)
from heel to waist: 110 cm ~ 43,3"
heel to knee (tightest point): 47 cm ~ 18,5"
knee to hips (widest point): 41 cm ~ 16"
hips to waistline: 22 cm ~ 8,6"
(these pics taken in snow, not really in a tail's natural habitat X) with baaad lights but the other pics are closer its true colours)
Leaderfin's Trainer monofin (stiffness: soft-the orange one) in it with umm I think Medium footpocket? My feets eu39 size and comfortably fits, also quiet wide footpockets (and I cut the straps coz I felt it more easy to wear and "jump out" from it, in case I felt unsafe)
oh and its around 14 kgs ~ 30 lbs (with a dorsal fin, pair of 'heel fins' and pair of 'ankle fins')
Tail fully from DragonSkin Silicone
The color: used art pigment powders mixed in the material (not painted on). I intended to replicate a turquoise mineral stone-like look and I think I succeed. Since the wanted effect is stone, its not glittery-shiny-watery (when dry), somewhere more dense, somewhere bit more translucent as I tried to play with it, except the golden parts, wich are in flashlight or in sunlight really poppin' out from the matte surrounding
Has some drainage channels.
Has a few, 4 or 5 swim in it, not much opportunity came by for me to use it.
The side seams look quite neat too. I can send more pics from details or anything
Asking 1600 USD for it, I have literally no idea about shipping yet (from Europe-Hungary :/), what do You guys think?
the tail in action (note, the fluke shape been alatered since):
