Better for maids then men perhaps - significant change to shape with new rigging
It's tricky for me to give this a star rating - I was waiting for the updated rigs before dropping the lindens for the full version and while good, they're not quite what I was hoping for. So please bear in mind that it's my subjective opinion here...
The rigs are significantly improved around the waist, resolving the issue with gaping and clipping when moving.
Unfortunately, for me at least, the new rig has come with a significant change in the shape of the upper portion of the tail. Where it was once quite sleek in the hips, it now has a distinctive diamond shape - and the butt is much more pronounced.
Here's how it was: https://i.gyazo.com/ab30885808ffc1f46adf9625238f8d4d.gif
Here's how it is now: https://i.gyazo.com/b4df378cb15f69e15e493a5f1a4711ce.gif
To my eye, at least, these give the tail a much more 'feminine' appearance than before. If you're a mermaid, this probably isn't an issue! It's still a beautiful shape with a lot of potential. The caudal fin has a lovely and unique look. The movement is good and fluid. And the addition of what is essentially a 'tattoo' layer to the tail is great, as it allows for more customisation and decoration on your tail without having to swap out of a base design that you've fallen in love with.
Trying to be objective, I've rated it as a four, as a three felt too harsh. Maybe three and a half is closer to how I feel. But for me, the significant change in the original shape means I won't be upgrading to the full version at this time, which is a shame. Still, if you like the new shape, it's a good tail.
