Since the end of my exams, I've been working on some designs on my nail plates just for fun, to see what I can come up with. And also, in case I ever decide to do manicures at fleas, I'd have the designs already done up!
If you're following me on twitter, you'd probably have seen the animal prints I'm about to show you but the picture I tweeted wasn't all that clear because of my sucky phone camera (fine, iPhone users, your camera is really good, no need to rub it in) so I took better pictures with my camera!
L-R: Leopard print, zebra print and giraffe print
These 3 designs were actually much easier to do up than I had expected. They're all drawn by hand in case you're wondering!
Sadly, the moment I painted on a top coat, the black acrylic paint became a little mirky and I'm not too sure why! I've had better luck with waiting for the paint to totally dry for a few hours before painting on some SV but I don't think I'll have that much time to wait for the paint to dry if I do such designs at fleas so do you gals have any suggestions as to why this is happening? Is it the brand of acrylic paint I'm using? I know some of you gals use acrylic paint from Spotlight but mine is from Omni which I bought at popular. It's just regular artist's acrylic paint. Does the brand really make a difference though? :(
i really like the giraffe one! never really used acrylic paint for nails before leh haha i should probably try..
ReplyDeleteThe giraffe one was the easiest! Just plonking polish in irregular shapes! Acrylic paint is so much cheaper and easier to handle!
