Catching up on some progress I made with this mermaid tail. Some new techniques and discoveries, explaining my ideas and more! It's been a busy month and it just goes to show how much work is going to go into this tail!

Working on this tails has been really fun but it's pretty sad knowing I won't be able to swim in it anytime soon. My original plan was to have it done by February because this is when my usual contracts start however because of lockdown my contract has been cancelled and I have to look for "regular" work atm.
I have been making some things in preparation for a shop update so that will be announced soon.
What have you been up to in January? Feels like this month has gone by so fast for some reason! Hope you're all doing well!
