Shouldn't they be properly called pelvic fins, then?

Aye. That's why I put it in quotes. I use the term 'pectoral fin'
purely because their shape and skeletal structure most resembles that
part of a dolphin.

But only their waistcoats to be sure, are red! And with big silver
buckles on their shoes! And if they want to follow Mr Disney's clothing
advice, it is up to them. :-D
I just happen to read at the moment 'Irish Folk & Fairy Tales' collected
by Michael Scott, and this is how a leprechaun is described in one of
them: "...dressed in a red waistcoat, green jacket, long green hose and
wearing a pair of huge black brogues with enormous silver buckles."
Apart from that, the dress code seems free where hats are concerned
however, but the pipe is mandatory it seems.

...now with 81% more UV-mapping! (The hand and innermost surfaces of
the mouth I need to do a bit of rearranging on the texture to include
them properly.)
Done entirely in Moray! (Well, I did a screenshot of the wireframe and
moved things around a bit in an image editor, but the rest of the
process was all done in Moray. Which I can't say I recommend as the
most efficient workflow.)
I still need to do some tweaking of the geometry, but getting the
UV-mapping done was partly to facilitate that, since that's the only way
to colour-code polygons to visually group them.

I am impressed!
And it is pleasing to the eye. :-)

It is an impressive achievement, more so even considering you did it all
in Moray.
Which - by the way - shows the capacities of Moray and its possible
future development.
