    Making arm fins!

    So today I started on making armfins!

    These are the steps I’ll try to follow:
    1 making the fins
    2 sewing the cuffs
    3 painting the cuffs
    4 put silicone over the cuffs
    5 put the fins and cuffs together
    6 hope it doesn’t randomly fall apart



    The first thing I did was try my hand at sculpting. But well... I’m not that good at it haha.
    Here’s how the sculpt looks:



    Then I did a test with silicone to see how the fin would look like..



    I think that fin currently is to messy so I’ll try to pour it more carefully.

    Also I think I need to make 4 fins and glue them together so that I have 2 not sure how I’m going to that though :0

    Anyways, I’m going to wait till my clay is dry so I can make more fins. We’ll see how they turn out and then I’ll post again

    If anyone has any tips on this topic let me know

    I will fear not my death or destiny
    Because death fears me
    I'm not afraid to stand up
    Fists up
    Never gonna give up
    I'm lightning, no fear, just adrenaline

    What kind of scars will you leave?
    What kind of blood will you bleed?
    When fear sets the stage for defeat
    What will your legacy be?

    They’re done!

    I’m happy they match my tail. They’re also very cute, not sure when I can use them...
