Anyways my left hand was dedicated to "real" vampires. I decided to take some inspiration from over at The Daily Nail. And do fang nails. I first painted my nails all white. Then with a fan brush dipped in acetone I went over it with Cult Nails Quench, Barry M Red Black, and OPI's Royal Rajah Ruby. Until I got the look I wanted. I was going for the blood coloured teeth look. When the vampire shows their teeth right after they have sucked blood.
On my right hand I used some Nailene polish from their french manicure kit and China Glazes Fairy dust. Because Edward sparkles. WTF Stephanie Myers? WTF?
I didn't file my own nails. I used false nails and placed them on 2/3 of my nails and filed them from there. So there was no giant hump when the fake nail ended I filled in the part over my own nail with some old Seche Vite.
I'll show you how I used the fangs again in my next post (Because I wasn't going to partially destroy my nails for just one manicure).
Great idea with the fake nails... This looks really awesome! I'd love to see more fang manis

ReplyDeleteThe thumb looks so freaking cool! Like biker badass. And nice job on utilizing fake nails! I still don't understand how the hump went away but I'm impressed :)

ReplyDeleteLOL, I love the idea behind fang nails- I was all "Huh, why are the pinkie and index all sharp and pointy when the... OH. FANG NAILS!" Awesome! Can't wait to see what else you do with this. :D
ReplyDeleteMWahahahaahaha!!! Between the awesomeness of this mani and the awesomeness of the thought of comedians reading twilight fan fic, I could die with a giant smile on my face. Noice. Thank you!
