Pearlie, you're a finspiration. I saw your tail on Facebook (where I think I left some messages on a few pics), recently I've returned here and now I'm hunting for your old thread to help me create an alternative of my own. I don't know how you get the scales to stick durable to power mesh but as I hunt for the old thread I hope to find some answers to that and scale molding questions I have. Look before asking, I know. I just wanted to shower you in adoration and love, your tail rocketed to my favorite, as well as your method.

I'm a mermaid of very little money and using unorthodox methods for making scale molds for my own tail, but it seems to be working except that my pigmented silicone of an unrecommended type started eating at my inner shells and I have more testing to do that got paused when I got sick. So, I'm off to hunt for your other thread now for answers!

I loooove your work, you're a true mermaid MUSE!
