whoa that's very wicked

love it

Thank you! i'm really happy about this one!

Omg I want one on a tail it looks like fireworks

XD It does! Perfect time of the year for it too! Looks like newyears fireworks :D

Woah, this looks really epic O.o

:D thank you hehe!

holy crap that's cool looking o.o

:D! Like fireworks!

yeah! :3

Ya know some times you have a hunch and it really pays off. A, I'm so glad you let me send you Ledouxs' tail. B, you did an outstanding job. I just knew you were the one to do it justice.

If you find the fiberoptics way to long for your liking you can trip them back a bit with some scisors or nail clippers. Also if you'd like the led colors to not be rainbow please let me know :D. I can change it so it's white or light blue or something! It just won't have that brilliant shifting glow effect like the rainbow does, unless I can poke at the code a bit.

light em up rainbows. coolness

In the video in the dark it looks like rainbow shifting space! Super wicked!

haha XD Long time no see!
That's what my dad said! He was like "it looks like spacceeee" XD

Right? I've been dead with getting close to the end of school, sooooo many classsseeeesssssss!
That was just the first thing I saw it reminded me of rainbow space leggings I have XD

oh gosh I know how that feels ;3;.

I'm so jelly of those space leggings! I've always wanted a pair!

xD That's how I feel right now! I keep turning it on and watching it LOL

Very cool. Did you use a ws2811/ws2812 5050 strand for this? Just curious, it's what I've been using mostly for my projects. Curious if anyone has had luck with four wire types, the timing and memory requirements on the ws2812s make them tough to use for some things.

Thank you kindly. I believe I've used those WS2811's before, but I tend to stick with WS2801 for most of my needs :D. I prefer those.

Ah cool, I used those for a rainbow yarn tail I made, they do work nicely. Thanks!

hehe no problem :3.

Gaaaahhh. Why you do this girl. I have another idea I want done now with these pretty things. ;_;

haaaa XD I'm so sorry LOL!

oh man this is so cool !!

Thank you :D!

Can the tail still be soft like this? I've been trying to figure out how to make a very "whispy" like fox tail mimicking the aurora borealis!! :D

It wpuld depending on the fiberoptics you use. The gague would make a difference.

By gauge do you mean thickness of the wires? I'm sorry I know nothing of electronics ^^;
Do you still do fiber optic commissions if we provide a tail? (i think I saw you do that somewhere...)
I'm just trying to plan out ideas for a character and I don't think I've seen anybody pull off a "whispy" tail effect before haha

Aye! Like it depends on how thick the fiberoptics are and sometimes the type of material makes a difference too. This would be something I'd have to play with to get the right "texture". The tail in the picture uses pretty thick wire, but I can always see if there's something a little less thick.
The kit, which included a microcontroler, pixel leds, and all those fibers ran about 150$. I think it was a little less, but that paid for all my time as well. It takes a whole lot of patience and time to cut all those fiberoptics, then secure them to the heads of the leds. The kit comes with 25 leds, but depending on your tail it may need more. The price fluctuates depending on how much or little you need. :D
