Dye sublimated taiyaki tail prop (Patreon)

One of my personal characters has a taiyaki tail, so I set out to use dye sublimation to make a quick and easy one! I decided to sublimate onto light brown minky, and drew my designs in procreate using a darker brown. all markings on this are dye sublimated! I used a template and photoshop to be sure that my sizing was correct. The main body of the fish has iron on foam interfacing on both sides to help it hold shape, with a layer of the same foam between each fin, which was then top stitched. This is a good example of dye sublimation not only making a project easier, but more attractive from my perspective! I love how clean it looks!
