Where's my goldfish?
Hi, everyone!
I love the fish scale pattern. It's one of my very favorites to play around with. I normally can't get my colors quite right, but I'm in love with the way this one turned out (so expect A LOT of pictures!).
For this mani, I used Color Show Sweet Clementine, Milani Metallic Mango, Orly Prince Charming, and Milani Blackberry Baby.
I used Milani Metallic Mango as the base and Prince Charming and Mash 39 for the stamping. The metallic really adds to the scale-like shimmer. I made little U-shapes at the bottom of random scales with a dotting tool and Sweet Clementine.
For the accent nail, I used a base of Sweet Clementine and a decal made from plate A48 using Blackberry Baby - darker and more metallic than Prince Charming - and Metallic Mango to fill in the fish's body.
I love the shimmer and the compliment of the lighter color. I keep peeking at my nails to see whether it looks "really fishy" or just like splotches.
I think I'll be staring at this one for a while, Konaddicts! Hope your weekend ahead is a great one!
