Merlion nail art for Singapore

Country no. 17 in the Where In The World Challenge which happens to be Singapore.

I've chosen to make a nail art of their national animal; Merlion which simply explained is a mythical animal with a lions head and a fish body. My inspiration image and more info can be found here. At least I learned something new, and I decided to make an accent nail and match it up with a hot pink texture polish. Quite simple nail art but I think the Merlion look kinda cute. :)






Polishes used:
China Glaze - Bumps And Grinds
China Glaze - Beach Cruise-R
HM - Blue My Mind
L.A. Colors Art Deco - Sky Blue
Jordana Pop Art - Contemporary White
Jordana Pop Art -Black Mark

    Vilken härlig manikyr! Älskat den något oväntade färgkombinationen. Jag skulle dock inte kunnat gissa att det var ett merlion, jag ser bara den tråkiga grå statyn för mig när jag hör det ordet.

    Lejonhuvud och fiskkropp? Man kan ju undra vad de hade stoppat i sig när de kom på den kombinationen;)

      Tack, det var dock sjukt pilligt. Dessutom sabbade jag det på första försöket(!) Brukar aldrig vara klumpig så sett men lyckades göra om det hela.
