    Okay, get a grip, get the hang of this flipper,
    It's like slipping two feet into one big huge slipper.
    I can't believe I can do this and more,
    To swim in the sea like I walk on the shore.
    Out of my shell not closed up like a clam,
    Look out sea, this is me, here I am....

    Today after sitting in the same spot for 8 hours I've gotten a lot done. I started with about 9 inches done and stopped with 1/4 of the tail left to cover. Before.

    I poured the mold and pulled it today after work. It came out great! A few small bubbles to fill but I'm happy!

    I believe I'm having a reaction to the resin. I have broken out into hives the last 3 times I've worked with it including yesterday... guess who will probably have to make her fiancé do the resin pouring from now on??

    Do they appear on your face and hands mostly? And arms sometimes?

    How long did yours take to go away? Mine always got increasingly worse until I took steroids. So typically 2 weeks lol. I didn't wait this time though I was like DR GIVE ME STEROIDS PLEASE lol

    I'm on a massive time crunch to finish her tail. I've given up finishing mine before May. It's definitely the last time I do this and only charge materials! It's too much work and time. I'm pouring the last scales and attaching the fluke and final scales by Wednesday
