Day 5 - Blue

    Hey guys! Onto day 5 - Blue! Overall, I'm pretty alright with how these came out. I'm not really excited about how not-noticable the jellyfish are, but what are you gonna do. I really upped the ante with myself on this one and I decided to put on my artistic pants and busted out the shading! I've been pretty into nail art for a few years now, but I'm not good at real art and I really haven't quite figured out what brushes work best but this challenge really is making me test, and second guess myself. But I'll take any progress I can get! So on that note, onto the jellyfish!

    I'm also just now realizing how awful these pictures are.. but you can still see the shading! For these I started with two coats of OPI My Vampire is Buff and then used the sandwich bag type technique to get the water look with Essie Trophy Wife. I then freehanded on the jellyfish with Konad stamping polish in silver, then used the black and white Konad polishes for the shading.


    Also, sorry about the busyness of the background, its just these crazy lightening leggings that I wore for the first time the other day! I'm still so excited about them and this was two weeks ago haha!
