Avengers (movies): Nail art: The Avengers

  • Jun. 14th, 2012 at 9:02 PM
I've seen a number of people paint their nails with designs for the Avengers. It looked like fun, so I gave it a shot. Some definitely worked better than others!

Notes: This is a mix of various brands, colors, brushes, and top coats. I hope it'll last through work tomorrow.



First, the ones that worked fairly well.

Captain America:

If I had longer nails, I'd have tried a star. But I think it gets the point across anyway.

Black Widow:

The black is a matte finish color I have, and I think it goes very neatly with the glittery red hourglass.

The Hulk:

I didn't have the right shade of green, so I mixed a couple. I like the green and purple-ness of it.

And now for the less-successful efforts:

Thor:

That's supposed to be a hammer. I guess it looks like a hammer...

Iron Man:

That's supposed to be an arc reactor on a shiny red background. It... isn't. It's shiny, though, does that count?

And so you have some idea of how these all look together (pardon the darkness of the photo):

That is a very fun idea! I might try fanish nailarts sometime, hmmm...

If you are interested, also, a friend of mine has an etsy polish shop, and just out up a new Hulk-inspired colour :3

Awesome!! If I actually had nails worth a squat I would TOTALLY do this all time.
