This is the mermaid tail I made earlier this year out of a monofin and swimsuit material.

wow that really good! how'd you get the pattern for it?

@TIMGryphon I made it all myself. There is a really good video on youtube how to make it. All you need is a monofin and swimsuit material. Then you make a pattern by tracing around your legs and the fin.

@TIMGryphon I actually do have another one that's red but it was just a prototype. I know you can't see it from the video, but I chose the blue because it has tiny, sparkling scale patterns so that it shimmers in the sunlight. The only other colors for that type of fabric were black and dark green, but I have blue eyes so the green would seem strange.

@mmisshannah well that's really good! I would use the color green or red, but blue will make it blend with the sea. No wonder they're hard to spot.
