    Is that big chunks of glitter? I always thought that it wasn't durable in silicone because the glitter cut itself out?

    Or did you find a secret magical way around that? Haha

    Not a secret magical way, really...you just use the chunky glitter in places that won't flex much. The center of the fluke isn't going to be manipulated like the body of the tail would be, and all the chunky glitter in my personal fluke is all in place after 2+ years, so this placement should be fine. I wouldn't use the chunky stuff at the end of the fluke where it would be likely to cut its way out of the rubber.

    This is still in the mold, so you're actually seeing the inside part of the fluke - and I haven't cleaned up the areas around the swirls just yet...still a lot to do!

    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....

    Here's a color-corrected version, modified so the perspective isn't as screwy... There's still some tweaking to do, but this is the main idea.

    Before I started working with silicone I didn't like pink. It was OK, occasionally, but I could never label it a favorite color by any means. Then I used the "pink gold" pigment. Then I found the "flamingo pink" pigment. Then I saw your pink scales.

    Now it's definitely a favorite.

    This is amazing

    There's a LOT of pink in this tail...I didn't want it to come out like a solid pink popsicle, so there's lots of variations...I'm liking it!

    Also, the fluke came out of the mold this shiny...no topcoat!

    Wow- Pearlie- you are such a fabulous artist. I feel like if Frida Kahlo was a mermaid she would see this and offer you any price. This is gorgeous.

    I love that design more every time I look at it...

    I would love to see that fluke style done with bright glittery rainbow coloured details against a jet black background.
