How to make a mermaid tail - The Cutting (and Colour Disaster)

Aug 27, 2012 14:48

Alright. I was a bit scared of the cutting part. The neoprene was so damn expensive and one little mistake would ruin it all. But I got the right measurements in the end and it turned out the way I wanted it.

Is my butt really that big? J.Lo is nothing compared to me! )

It took a bit of time but in the end I found the right technique! The scales look good so I hope I won't mess it up. ^_^

Thank you, dear! My tail is making progress. Slow but steady. I won't be able to swim in it this year. At least not outdoors. But that's fine with me. I just want to finish it and to make it look great. I hope the result will fulfil my expectations. *fingerscrossed*

And yay for the package! S. and I are really happy it found the way to you. We're glad we could bring you a bit of joy. ^_^
