That. Is. Gorgeous. It reminds me of a type of moth... can't remember which though...

That tail. I remember when. It was just a sketch. So cool. Dorsal fin with eye.

You saw my Likes and comments on FB, and I repeat them here without actually repeating them as that would be repetitive!

**Ariel-Starfish** · 07-07-2015, 06:27 AM

I'm really liking the last 3 shots of you!

I've already seen the redt of it on your Instagram.

Two more from Sean of me in She Creature. Sorry for flooding haha

It is the hardest tail I have ever swam in. No kick. So much drag. Looks beautiful, but I kept thinking I was gonna die because it was hard to come up for air. And I've been at this 7 years.. lol

What is the monofin in the fluke?

**Aurellia Gyldenscale** · 07-07-2015, 11:59 AM

Starting to get concerned....last time I heard from raven was March 10th when I decided to upgrade to a blended waist. Emailed them at the end of May for a progress report (my quoted time was 200 days and I emailed them on day 150) and never heard back. Emailed them a couple days ago in order to confirm my colors/design/measurements before production started and haven't heard back yet. It feels like they only communicate with me when money is involved for them. Getting me nervous man. Someone reassure me that its all going to be ok.

I have the same problem with my repaired top. I emailed them two months ago and they said its finished and ill get pictures soon. Still nothing :-(

So i can feel your concerns. *hugs*
I guess we just need to be patient.

It does just take patience. They don't communicate much until they're working on your stuff directly and even then communication is pretty infrequent. That said they do read everything you send and take it into account in your design. My tail took quite a bit longer than the originally quoted 200 days too. Ended up in my hands at roughly 425 days or so (i did the two day saver shipping...expensive but i was ready for the tail to just be here). To be fair, about 45 days of that was repainting as I had a hard time accurately communicating the colors I intended which didn't become totally clear to Raven or I until she sent the final photos of the original paint. It was beautiful but needed some tweaking. Best thing to do is sit back, breathe deep, and just focus on other stuff until you start hearing from them. It isn't that they only communicate when cash is involved, it's that she puts so much focus into production she doesn't get much time to reply to email until it is pertinent to what she is crafting at that time.
