Out of curiosity, what sculpting material did you use for the tail?  Some sort of polymer?  Also, did you use tinfoil or similar to shape the tail before applying the clay?  I haven't done anything like this myself yet, but I've done some reading up on various techniques, so I'm just wondering. :)

I didn't use tin foil again because I could never get the shape right that way. The tail is actually solid as I used super sculpey to get the shape right, then did the fins and scales with apoxie sculpt. She's pretty heavy as a result but much more stable and the shape is much smoother. Will be doing it again.

it's good to see you back again! What a lovely custom to return with!

Thank you!:)

Thanks for taking the time to answer my question, naylastar.  I really appreciate it.  Your technique obviously worked well.  ^.^ Have you gotten any offers yet?
