This week has been crazy insane (I commited to actually making a mani a day - why do I make silly bets with myself!?) but also incredible rewarding.
I'm happy I produced some (if I may say so msyelf) beautiful nail art and actually proud to count myself amongst The Digital Dozen fab ladies - thank you for taking me, in!
Without further ado, let's show you what I prepared for my final mani:
Ever since I've gotten into nail art as in for real, I've wanted to paint one of my favourite cartoon characters: Calvin & Hobbes.
I took inspiration from THIS one in particular and, apart from Calvin's face, can I just say I'm hecstatic at how it came out?
So proud I didn't ruin it! Painting your favourites on your nail can go so wrong!
I painted my nails this bright sky blue with miisp Wonderland Cinderella.
I then sponged the leaves using yellow, orange and red.
All details were painted in acrylic paint and it wasn't all that hard until... I had to paint Calvin's eyes and nose and mouth.
And I swear I never cursed as loud! It almost made me give up!! Glad I didn't, they were worth it :)
Do you agree?

Hugs & Kissies,

Are you kidding me with this? It looks like you straight up ripped some pages out of the book and somehow got it to stay on your nails! Absolutely amazing. What a talent you have! Love love love!
ReplyDeleteYou're amazing! I knew what it was as soon as I saw it! You have an indescribable amount of freehand talent. Love them!
ReplyDeleteSO cute and pretty!
ReplyDeleteMina, this is just jaw-droppingly incredible. It is one of my favorite looks from you by far. You captured the original image so well and I'm so glad that you finally went for recreating this look. You seriously nailed it.
ReplyDeleteWow, Mina, this is insanely gorgeous! I can't even... This is just too pretty for words. So warming and autumnal. You did an amazing job with the freehand, everything is just perfect! xx
ReplyDeleteI'm not super familiar with Calvin & Hobbes (shame on me?) but these are super pretty Mina! Love the Fall colour scheme!
ReplyDeleteThese are so cute! I would probably think they are even cuter if I knew the cartoon :D They came out great, you're definitely a worthy member of DD :)
