Allo polish Pals!
How are you all doing today? I sure
hope your week has had a better start than mine, Sunday
morning..BAM. I woke up with the worst head cold. I had no warning at
all, no build up.
As as result its affected my painting
and I've been so unamused with any of my creations yet I am putting
pressure on myself to complete press sample posts before I go away
for a few days (I'll still be posting, when do I miss posting?!) As
this post becomes live I am struggling with myself to achieve at
least two of three miles in the morning. I gotta fight this off, I
miss my pattern.
So.. today's nail art is another one
I'm not 100% I'm happy with. Our current theme on Tiny Canvas is
'Mythical creatures' – I did do a Kelpie which is like a sea
horse/water horse but I couldn't bring myself to post it (I've still
got it, he may make an appearance at a later date) so instead I've
decided to share my dragon with you.
I'll tell you guys a little secret. If
any of you are getting GoT feels from this.. I've never watched any
of it! Not even an episode. I love dragons and fantasy...but I just
can't bring myself to do it, ha!
Do you guys ever get in a slump about
what you are producing? I feel like I've had a pretty good run but
every so often my creativity crashes slightly and I'll go through a
short spell of hating what I do.. What do you guys
do when that happens? Take some kind of action or ride it out?
For this design I only used my OPI Nail
Envy Base coat, China Glaze's 'White On White' and created everything
else with my acrylic paints. I'm currently using Barry M's All in one
base/top coat to seal my designs.. eh, It's ok. It's no Pro-FX
though.
What do you guys think of my
dragon design? Does it remind you of anything?
Thank you guys for visiting today, take
care and I'll see you again on Saturday!
Love,
Ithi

Thank you so much, Zauberin! I hope you are fully recovered now :) I am doing better, thank you for your kind wishes on Facebook!
DeleteAwesome nail art! It reminds me of one of the books in the Eragon series, the second one if I'm not mistaken (it's been ages since I've read them). I do remember the red dragon in those books wasn't a very happy one though, as opposed to your dragon who looks calm and wise.
ReplyDeleteI sure hope you'll start to feel better soon. Just remember to allow yourself some time to recover instead of doing your normal routine. Being pampered because you're ill isn't such a bad thing, honest!
OMG this is an awesome mystical creature. So well painted, it looks magical!
ReplyDeleteThank you SO much, Andrea! And huge congratulations on your blogiversary!
DeleteWow! It looks gorgeous :)
ReplyDeleteThank you very much, Gosia!

Thankyou very much, Tanvi! I had no idea what to do for my base colour, so I was sort of winging it when I mixed the paint together!
DeleteLove that base colour! That dragon looks superb and very neat.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much!
DeleteThe dragon looks impressive, I am amazed by your skills. I would say it reminds me of GOT but..... Drogon is black and scarier :) However, you did a great job creating all those tiny details on the dragon.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much! Ah I didn't know the dragons were black, I guess that just means there will be more dragon nail art in the future! :)
DeleteThat nail art red dragon looks so beautiful and unique. The base color is perfect for that red dragon.
ReplyDeleteThis dragon nail art is so adorable. You girl has a great talent, Im jealous because I cannot even paint an apple on my nails hahaha.
ReplyDeleteYou did a good job!!

Aww thank you so much, Jae! I couldn't even paint my nails nearly when I started blogging!!
DeleteCan't believe you haven't seen GOT ever! I'm a huge fan of it! Secondly, I've to admit that I've never seen such a beautiful nail art ever! Totally splendid!
ReplyDeleteI know, I know, guilty! Everyone is telling me I need to sit and watch it but I think knowing there are so many seasons daunts me a little. Thank you so much!!
Deletereal pretty! I have always admired people who take that one extra step towards beauty and yo really are awesome
