Pink crackle gradient

Sometime I'm not that content with the nail art I've done and below is one of those. Inspired by this nude crackle manicure, which I liked, I decided to make a 100% pink crackle gradient and I guess I think it became too much and maybe the whole thing looks a bit "thick"? I don't know, what do you think?
Anyhow, it's Pink Thursday and there's at least no doubt that this is pink enough. ;)




Polishes used:
CG - Love's A Beach
Kleancolor - Neon Pink 
Kleancolor - Pastel Pink
Isadora Graffiti - Masterpiece Pink

    I have to admit your pictures erase and impression of thick - I only see a happy and bright very pretty mani that cheers up any dull winter day xxx

      Thanks, I'm not either a fan of crackle in general but in gradients they can work, I prefer my nude crackle I showed in the link though ;)

    Läckert tycker jag. Jag gissar att det ser superbra ut på lite avstånd.

      Tack! Ja, det mesta funkar ju bäst på lite avstånd, man blir alltid lite petig när man ser allting förstorat.

    So pretty, I love the hot pink! Certainly warming my day up. I don't think it looks thick but I know what you mean, sometimes I see thickness on my own nail polish. But here I don't see it. This makes me curious to play with crackles..! xx

      Thank you Ithi! I guess that it is what you say, one see more faults on one self than on other.. Yea, crackle are fun when you get it right, but other times it can easily get ugly.. haha :)

    maybe it would look better without top-coat? 'coz like that - texture of crackle top is invisible...

    but, anyway, I like this mani =)
    and I'll remember this technic - gradient with crackle... smart idea =)

      Yea, you have a point! The original one (with nude and blue, link in the post) I liked the best without top coat because then the base was shiny and the crackle matte..

      Yea, so far the best way to use crackles I know at least. In a regular manicure they can look a bit boring.. :/
