They look good.
The difficulty is pairing the stiletto shape with the short length.
Its really hard to make a perfect result because on such a short length it isnt 100% possible.
However the are a nice set of nails in their own right.
My suggestion would be to sharpen up the point a bit.

Thankyou angel, I rounded them off a little so I dont scratch the kids!! I did love the point on them before I rounded them though!! My 3 yr old son said they are "monster" nails!!!

I like the black with the red glitters! Really chrismassy ;).
Also agree that they should be sharper, but indeed not with kids ;), I would loooovee to wear stiletto's but it also isn't really possible with an 8 month old daughter.
One suggestion tough; maybe next time you could place the form a bit more downward, that way it is possible to create a nice (pointy) short stiletto, I've tried and it worked. But overall nice job!
