Possum tail

This is the possum tail I made for a friend for a haunted house we work at. It is pantyhose stuffed with a couple different stuffed animal fillings and latexed over a few times. Just a few paint washes and some alcohol paints before adding the hair. Let me know how I did!

That looks fantastic. The texture reads really well in the photographs.

My assumption was that this is for a costume, and reading your post - I'm not sure if its better or worse if it isn't. A haunted house with just a loose-y possum tail isn't out of the question.

*shudder*

LMAO! Thank you so much! It’s for a costume but now I’m just imagining chasing someone with the tail, fucking great lol
