Police Nails - I'm done with Google adventures

This seemed like the natural progression of things.

The base is a perfect police blue, the he police tape is acrylic paint and a rollerball pen, and the hand cuffs are Orly Platinum Blush.  I actually had a hard time figuring out what to put on my thumb.  I started looking up "Things police carry with them" online as I wanted to put some thing a bit different on my thumb.  Everything I found I either ended up not wanting on my nails or it was just something I didn't feel I could draw.  That lead me to look up "What CSI carry around", but then I had to look things up specifically.  Originally when I put CSI in any form in my photo searches I mainly got promo for the TV show.  Now the thing is when you look up individual CSI items you start getting actual crime scene photos. So after 1 dead body I was done. FINALLY I gave up and tried to paint tiny handcuffs on a piece of paper.  I failed epically, went back to Google and searched handcuff nails where I found this.  Much easier then the more realistic looking cuffs I was trying to do :P

Anyways the moral of the story is my nails are pretty and the internet is sometimes filled with the things nightmares are made of... :D
