A long flexible tail (Patreon)

Rin has a crazy tail! We decided to use a pool noodle to make it. I cut notches in the top and bottom to help with flexibility. Next I covered it in a tube of air mesh that was not tight fitting, just loose enough to allow movement. We then sewed multiple strips of fabric together to make the babadges, first wrapping them and gluing them in order next to each other, and then another layer of a more random arrangement. The final image is not the completed tail, but you can see where we first wrapped the bandages evenly to cover the air mesh.
