Maybe Plastidip will work for your skin. You could spray that onto a Dacron sheet.

It is also available in black

Dacron is a sheet that stretches on the bias, often used in membrane roof systems.

I noted that it was suggested to use a latex coating, but these water based materials absorb water in immersion. I think the Plastidip would be better.

Sharks on hold over the summer, squid to be completed soon, but keep the good ideas coming, this is a bit of an 'out there' project and any input is greatly appreciated :-))
