    I think I may have to invest in some myself! Seems like a wonderful idea to me!

    So It's been a while since the last update, but I finally have something to show you guys! The artist has started working on my armor, and this image will be part of a hip piece/belt:

    It's far from finished, but I like it already! It will be fully waterproof, so I hope to be able to do an awesome underwater photoshoot with it once it's all done.

The more elaborate and detailed a mermaids armor, the more respect she earns, because it shows all of her successful hunts..... Anyways yes mer armor is cool!

    That looks great, Crystal! As it happens, I recently made a blue-ringed octopus myself for a top. It's a new product coming soon to my Etsy shop...

    Sorry to Necro-post...... but this is VERY MUCH my jam. *NodNodNod*

    I've started working with thermoplastics myself, and I would like to eventually create an armored mer-sona. I'm very glad to hear that Worbla can be used, and I just need to remember to fix with with a waterproof top coat. I do use a clear-coat already to most of my pieces, only because I want the colour to last and resist UV damage.

    If you're looking for alternative ways to get regular Worbla smooth (the brown stuff), I know that layers of wood glue and a wet sand in-between layers with a 400 grit sandpaper makes worbla really, REALLY smooth. Like epic level smooth for metallic finishes. I'll be testing out the Black Worbla on a different project soon enough, but I hear that it's really good on the smoothness scale as well.
