    Looks like he used some sort of stencil to paint the gold on top of the green and blue. I would have probably wanted to blend the harsh line or layered more for a more organic feel, but it still looks nice. It's very crisp and symmetrical.
    Also I can't see where the monofin ends in this picture. Maybe he's getting better at hiding them.

    I think that's a full silicone monofin

    your not the only one... i think that if people want to create a fish tail or a certain species of fish. I wish they would keep the tail to that species. clownfish have rounded tails.. however the colours look good.

    Can someone please get me back to the ocean before I suffocate... I need the water......

    The color scheme is pretty, but as mentioned by someone earlier, I would have preferred it to be more blended and where the tail meets the fluke it looks choppy. Like pieces of the scales are missing. This tail is still better than most of his stuff lately though. However, there's just no way to know who painted and constructed it.

    There is the... angel fluke? Honestly I was never sure of the name and the spade fluke, neither are current options on his website but I feel like he might do them if asked since it's probably just that he hasn't updated it yet.

    Let me just say, I hope this is EXACTLY what the client ordered specifically otherwise it's sort of embarassing. Not one of the best blending jobs I've ever seen out of Mertailor. Clearly Matty was the skills behind that part of the operation.

    Anyone else love the LOOK of Eric's tails?

    That also reminds me of a magictail color. wouldn't be the first time he's made a direct magictail copy.

    Woah that is hands down the exact same paint job as Raven's tail.

    Sometimes I wonder what people are thinking when they order these tails...

    "Hi! I'd love a tail that has this exact color *Holds up Raven's photo* but I want it to be looked like it was made from trash bags and a glue gun."
