    Gahhhh, I always forget that Tyler does his own work too. :\ She gets sick so often...hope she feels better soon.

    That basic tail is being asked $800 for--such a great deal for such a gorgeous tail and she might even haggle it if enough time goes by. I hope someone can swoop it up to a good home!!

    Some pictures I've been meaning to post as a reference. With my first pair of scale bracers, the scales were easily ripped apart and with a 3+ inch difference between my hands and wrists it was far too easy for them to pull apart. Raven made my second pair with smaller scales and she said she planned to make the Merbella Scale bracers that way from there on, and I just wanted to post real quick as reference the difference between the scale sizes as I still have the little scale scraps she used to put the earrings (gift<3) on. I don't know if she'll do that for the rounded scale bracers but the Merbella ones would definitely have to, these scales are practically invincible. I put a spool of thread as reference for size.







    (Sorry about the triple posting there...lol. :P)

    I like the merbella scales on them! I'm glad they got all fixed up Emma! Those earrings are adorable!

    *dying cow sound* I wish I had $800. Now I'm tempted to buy a scratch off card...

    Really important question: How stretchy are the basic tails?

    I ask because I might be able to fit the tail that Raven is selling. I fit all the measurements except the hips and knees! I'm only 4 inches off. Interesting. So, How stretchy are basic tails? Will it even fit if those two measurements are off? What are your opinions?

    They likely won't stretch 4 inches.... full silicone won't even stretch 4 inches without being damaged over repeated wear that way.... Neoprene has elasticity to it, but four inches of stress-stretch is a lot on these materials.

    Welp, I tried. Sorry Mrs. Raven, it looks like she's going to have to wait for that perfect buyer than. Curse my big-beautiful-perfect-birthing-baby hips.

    Baby birthing hips!!! (I apparently have those... ~35" ish? I'm too lazy to check. Haha )

    Ugh... I think I've joined Raven in being sick. Haha no bueno. No me gusta estar enferma. :-(

    Emma, those bracers! Augh! Remind me to buy a pair some day and buy some for the mermen in my life. XD

    Oh no, those aren't earrings but it would be neat if they were. That's what the earrings were ON when I got them :P

  11. #2151

    oooooh!! Those would be neat earrings though o-o

    That green basic tail is almost the exact color scheme that I want D: Except I wouldn't fit into that thing if my life depended on it. Guhh it's one of my absolute favorite Raven tails too ;;

  14. #2154
    The green tail would fit me perfectly! I sent her an email, how long do you think it'll be before she responds?

    The tail goes to the first person ready to pay, so if you havent heard you may not have been first. Tyler is handling the emails right now as well.

    Oh, I probably won't get the tail then I had some questions and the price she is asking for is too high for me.

    Yeah I think they were pretty clear the tail is going as IS for whoever can pay first.

  18. #2158
    It wasn't clear to me that the tail was going as is. Where did you find that information? On facebook, a lot of people were asking if it could be repainted and she wasn't answering.

    Soooooo, I scooped up Raven's opening for a performance tail (dying with excitement over here). I'm thinking of doing the angler fluke. Does anyone have one of her tails with the Merbella scales? I was consider getting them because they're gorgeous. But Raven told me they're more fragile than the rounded scales and stretch less. Anyone have an opinion on one over the other?
