    Ive never seen the scales made separately and then put together, just the scale sheet molds. Can I ask how you are attaching them and what to? A backing, I assume....?

    They are attaching with silicone. I'm using swimsuit lining fabric as a backing. It's a way several mers have started making tails but most popularly and successfully Pearlie Mae! She's amazing! My friend Tam (Amelia pond) is also doing this method. She sat down for 3 hours at a Starbucks back in the fall as I gushed about how amazing Pearlie was and do's and don'ts of tails lol from my past experience.

    Wow!!! This is looking really good! So let me get this straight. You're making the scales individually and adding them to the fabric? I almost feel like that's such a neat way to go about it. I'm impressed!
