Yay! My first blog post. My big brother Reid came up with the name. I've been wanting to start a nail polish/nail art blog for a while now so I'm super excited!

For my first post I'm showing "The Dark Knight Rises" nails.
I've done batman nails before and I'll post that picture at the bottom, but those were more comic book batman. I wanted to do something different for the dark knight.

I think the lines for the wings could have been a little sharper but not too bad for my first attempt.

If ya'll haven't seen The dark knight rises yet you need to, it was amazing, Joseph Gordon-Levitt was the best part in my opinion, but who doesn't love Christian Bales gargling batman voice.

Once I get in the swing of things with the blog I'll put up some tutorials, but this was pretty simple, just a silver background and used a nail art brush to outline the bat then fill it in.

As promised, here is the more cartoon batman look, which is much more difficult

 

Sorry for the not great quality of pictures, my blackberry isn't all that great. But as you can see I did a city skyline with the bat light shining in the sky and then a classic comic book "pow" and the classic bat symbol, which I don't think turned out too great.

Feel free to comment with any questions about these designs. Yay! First nail blog post is complete!
