  Step 1

  Gather you materials and make a loop in your wire for the jump ring.
  *tip: I usually wrap my wire around my Pliars twice so that the loop is not too thin.

• 

  Step 2

  Twist the “tail” of the wire around the longer piece so that the loop doesn’t come undone.
  After that you can start to form the tail

• Step 3

  Shape the top to be either rounded or creased/ square like.

• 

  Step 4

  Bend like so a bit away from the loop

• 

  Step 5

  Make a few more bends. (Lol it looks like pac man!)

• 

  Step 6

  Bend it over and wrap the wire like so.

  Also now is a good time to make sure the fins look like fins and not pac man

• 

  Step 7

  Now go back to the top and wrap the wire in the shape you want.
  Trim off the excess

• 

  Step 8

  Now it’s time to paint it!

  Take breaks between applying the nail polish so that the nail poilsh can dry and collect/clump together to form the scaly part of the tail.
  Once that’s done, apply a coat with scale like glitter and wait for that to dry.
  After that last bit is dry, modpodge it, wait til it drys and then your done
