mermaid scales

[blue]

I know you can buy brilliant scale rollers and such but.........

if you would like to make your own........

well im going to talk kiwi cause i am tired and cant think past a block of polymer right now.........so here goes

you know those craft scissors ($3 red shed) with the wigglie blades........ break them to bits ...... get *the man* to grind down the blade ends....make your own polymer push handle(waste clay) and waa laa you have a mermaid scarer.......

you can buy all manner of patterned scissors so i guess you could use them to texture anything you wanted...

but i tried it out today and makes perfect mermaid scales........
