Thanks so much everyone! I'm having so much fun

@ shadeofmyheart, I'm using pearl ex powdered pigments and its working great this time! With my last tail I had trouble with the paint curing due to the rubber monofin inhibiting the cure of the silicone. I'm using a different monofin this time and painting the tail before I put the monofin inside just to be safe!

We'll see how much or how little it takes to color up some silicone!

great minds must think alike...I found some hot pink powdered eyeshadow at a flea market last month I'm planning on testing! I just haven't gotten around to it yet!
