I love that you went for a more realistic look than a fantasy look. This is so cool!

You’re so clever using the little plastic scales as individual molds. I’m going to make a tail but not quite like this, more Barbie doll sized. I made a prototype but didn’t understand how to add pigment until now! I also love your h2o videos. I’ve been thinking about silicone tails for a while now and your tutorials are the easiest to follow. You make such a beautiful Mermaid too and you’re an amazing swimmer.

Honestly we need more mermaid tv shows and movies and whenever they get their act together, they know where to find their expert person!! I think you would make a great Madison from “Splash or “Aquamarine”.

This is incredible, the tail looks wonderful and you had a brilliant idea for the scales. I am impressed, bravo!

[ellie_SCS]

Once again your crafting skills and creativity inspire me soooo much~

[SLVRsongbird]

I love how dedicated you are! I know I could never spend a whole week just applying scales... though the end result definitely looks worth it!! Well done 😄

[whosyou]

You're really talented
That was such a unique way to make the scales!
What's your next big project going to be?

I CANT WAIT FOR YOU TO SWIM IN THIS MAGNIFICENT TAIL 🥰

[AtzenButze]

So ^^ Really interesting and really well done making of the fin! Really amazing what processes are behind it so that it looks like this in the end, but you explained it really well, also from the editing of the video Really well and I can imagine that you were sometimes a little desperate - but all in all great video ! 😊 Looking forward to the next one! ^^

[jenifferizidorio]

De todas as caldas de sereia que eu já vi até agora, essa de fato é a melhor.❤ Parabéns, ficou linda👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

[Kat_thesirena]

it turned out soo good !!! was so fun to watch the progress of you making the tail 🧜🏽‍♀️ now go catch some pirates ☠ 😏

[antonismpakla]

What a lovely tail! If you want and if you like, try to Diy the Pax Mermaid tails, from the Mermaids (2002)

[FedhitheSlayer]

Hey, hope you're well! :) Gorgeous tail! You made a great job! :) The colors and the design is very beautiful! :) I'm looking forward to see how it will looks when you will swimming into the water! :)
By the way, my silicone merman tail of Syrena from Pirates Of Caribbean: On Stranger Tides that I began to do 1 year and a half/2 years ago is processing very well! I'm still working on it! :) I have a few individuals scales to glue on the body and I'm working on the caudal fin/ fluke right now :)

[HaleyTheMermaid]

I’ve never seen scales done that way before and it’s super creative! Does the foam make the tail super floaty? Do you think the foam will mold when wet?

[finthefishseptoma]

Really cool project! Thank you so much for sharing your techniques and ideas :) i am not planning on making a silicone tail but I still really appreciate your willingness to help others improve their own projects :D!

[dragoetherealmerman]

Amazing 🤩 another inspiration to come by. Can’t wait to see the tail in action in the next video. 💙💙💙🌊🌊🌊

[klkpgtk]

This is so realistic, so good, you're created the masterpiece!

[ratchdigan]

I really want to make one and a mermaid from the pirates of the Caribbean now!!! Thank you so much for the video 😀

[Whistlermedium]

thanks for this! super helpful - been looking for a particular step by step and this is perfect. youre the best :)

[superoptimus]

Imagine what you look like wearing a siren tail and how would you feel about that?

Also siren mermaid tails are 100% possible to make and it’s going to be my first one. Extended version is possible too

[EminaSirena]

I wish you kept the sharp ends of the tail to look more like the ones in the movie. As the round edges remind me of a goldfish still beautiful but a little different
