31 Day Nail Art Challenge: Day 5 - Blue Nails

Today I bring you Adventure Time with Finn and Jake! This look I created myself was inspired by the intro of the show. Take a gander!

Note: No snails were harmed for these pics. I named him Cesar, then put him back where I found him.

Cute right? Well I constantly watch that show and am in the process of making a BMO costume for an Adventure Time costume party I was invited to on the 30th. When I mean "in the process of" I mean I just have a box. There's a lot of work ahead of me so I am starting tomorrow and taking it slow so I don't rush and make a bad costume.

Enough of that. Here comes the tutorial. If you prefer to watch my process shot for shot then brace yourself. Here's the link

First I painted my nails with a blue 3D effect nail polish. (The 3D polish is not required).

FOR FINN

I painted a white base outline.

Made a peach circle in the middle.

Made 2 black lines for eyes.

Made a small dark red (blended red and black together) circle for the mouth.

Made a pink tongue inside the mouth.

Made little white teeth, top coated and took a deep exhausting breath.

On my other fingers I wrote FINN THE HUM AN in black. (messed up on the human part. The intro goes HU MAN instead).

FOR JAKE

I made a dark yellow base outline. (He turned out a bit too dark).

Made big white eyes with my dotting tool.

Made half-moons around his eyes with black.

Outlined him in black so you can see his ears clearly. 

Made his jowl and his little bitty nose. Top coated and done.

On my fingers I wrote JAKE THE DOG in black. Top coated the wrest of my nails and Let 'em dry.

Now my nails from afar.

Hope you like them as much as I do. I'm really proud of them. I didn't have much confidence in this design but they sure proved me wrong!

Tomorrow is purple, which I have none of….. Looks like im going shopping for supplies.
