B-b-b-barracuda? They like the shiny?

Haha! Any time I hear the word barracuda I think of the Heart song:

Thanks for that website! I'll definitely check it out. Smooth rubbers are really hard to glue.

WOW! Pearlie, this is going to look amazing. <3

It was totally stuck in my head after I said it. I'm glad I'm not the only one who thinks it when I hear/say the word.... I thought it was my weird word association from how I learned English

What do you guys think of different designs on front/back for the fluke?

**SirenaEma** · 12-19-2013, 02:36 PM

Just got my lexan sheet in the mail

I have a pretty good idea of what I want for the fluke but does anyone have any suggestions about what to do with foot pockets and how to attach them?

How is the tail coming along? I cant wait to see more of it!!

**Seatan** · 12-19-2013, 05:16 PM

Five different sizes? That sounds like it's going to be visually beautiful when you get them all laid out. Are you sticking with the seashell look?

**Seatan** · 12-19-2013, 05:41 PM

You are going to HAVE to get some videos when you are through! (Though what I really want is to see it in person--it sounds gorgeous!)

**Ashton** · 12-19-2013, 05:43 PM

Wow 5 sizes! That is going to look cool! I really like the video! I loved the end with your feet in the silicone! It looked so silly! Haha. I know every one is stressed out around this time of he year- I am too. I can't sleep so I am up till like 1/2am practicing stitching neoprene prices together for when I finally see my tail.

This is so exciting!!!

AWESOME! I LOVE the purple one in the upper right!

**jazz2453** · 12-21-2013, 01:08 PM

I did testing with the eyeshadow and it worked perfectly! You just have to make sure it's completely powder or there may be tiny chunks.

**LaNyah** · 12-21-2013, 01:24 PM

I love this.

What technique are you using to blend the colors in the pattern you want?

**LaNyah** · 12-21-2013, 02:08 PM

Cool. I would think the abalone style you had done before could be done in larger batches since it's not single-scale specific. (My fav color scheme to date BTW)
