May The Fourth Be With You

Happy Star Wars Day! Today I bring you a mani that is out of this world. Hehe, see what I did there? Ok that wasn't funny, lol. Anyways, I recreated my mani from last year, but instead of adding the 'May 4' nail again, I just did all the characters. We have Boba Fett, R2-D2, a Stormtrooper and C-3PO.
So I started with my diy glue peel off base coat, then added each base color according to character. Sinful Colors "Rise & Shine (Matte)" on my index for Boba Fett. Elf Nail Polish "Liquid Metal", and Sinful Colors "Out of this World" over that for R2-D2. Wet N Wild "French White Creme" for the Stormtrooper, and Elf Nail Polish "Pot of Gold" for C-3PO. All the small details on the characters were done with acrylic paints. I'm really happy with how they turned out, and I definitely see an improvement from last year. The only one that I wasn't completely happy about was C-3PO.
With Chewie!

    1. I wish you had, hehe. I know what you mean though, I think about doing some design and end up doing something different or nothing at all due to laziness. Lol! Thank you by the way.
