So a little while ago, I posted on Facebook that I was selling an old pair of unicorn hoofboots and a tail, because I couldn't wear the boots anymore and they just sat in my closet all the time, and I never went out to play the faun character I used to anymore. One of my friends who makes awesome chainmaille and leatherworking gear for her LARPing group ("Live Action Role Play" for those who aren't familiar) offered to trade some custom maille/leatherwork for the set, and we decided to settle on some custom mermaid bracers to match my tail (which is still currently in the works!)
They aren't done yet, but I just got the first WIP pictures of the base and I AM IN LOVE!
There's going to be some white, gold and purple scales attached over the leather (save for the fin) and the fin is going to be painted a pearly white base so I can paint it to match my tail when I get it. The bracers are going to be dry-use only (obviously leather and aluminum scales are not a good combo for water... XD), and I'm so excited to see how the final bracers come out!
