comic book nails

I got this little gem from youtube - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B4FaidUlSbA

This is my right hand

this is my left hand

so i always use a base coat, you don't have to though, then do a white nail polish, you'll probably need two coats. Once this is completely dry (seriously needs to be bone dry!!) you move onto doing the comic strips.

Okay so go to your local corner shop or supermarket and buy a comic book. Like the dandy or beano, this was the one that i got. So go through the comic book and cut out the parts you like, remember its going on your nail so you want them quite small. Now get a tub of water, room temp and put your first little section in the water, make sure its really wet and position on your nail (i made sure i got the bits i want on the nail like a speech bubble, writing or little drawing). Press down really hard, like really hard and all over the nail. Don't move the paper though, keep pushing for like 30-60 secs. If the ink on the back come off on your skin, don't worry it comes off easily and it shows you're doing it right. So now gently peel it off and you should have the picture on your nail, don't worry if its missing in parts, i think it adds to the effect. Now you need a top coat!! The ink will smudge and come off if you don't! And then you're done :) Please please if you try this post me the photos or just let me go how it went!
