I couldn't pick between two pics so I sent them both and asked that they use their best judgement. I would like your constructive criticism, thanks!

You wouldn't wear a toolbelt with that little black dress, so why would you use your jewels as tools?

Your nails are jewels not tools.

:shock: thought I should prob post a closer up for critiquing

just a side note, this is the first time I tried sculpting whites on a real person...lol...I usually cheat and use tips, I usually practiced whites on clothespins.

the tools are made out of mosaic powders

Hi fingernailfixer, what a brilliant interpretation of such a well used quote. It also makes such a difference having professional photos done......really fab.

The only criticism that I can see (although far be it for me to make any critisism at all :oops:) is on the index and middle finger - it looks like the free edges are slightly more rounded than the ring and little finger. However, I'm more than aware that this maybe down to the photo ;)

Anyway, well done for getting up there and giving it a go, I'm sure you'll do really well.

All the best (got my fingers crossed for you)

Thanks for posting them. I haven't a clue what Mosiac is, but those look fab!!! Well, done!

Kx
 
uhh didnt spell that right...but hey.... :oops:
i'm not sure what the meaning is either but i love the first one with slogan i can see that on the back of vogue, the billboards etc., u need to be sending that to some nail companies ad departments well done :p
 
what does the term mean then.... i thought it was like i dunno bathroom mosacic designs on nails...obviously not...can you explain...have you just stuck the little tools on or have you sculpted them
 
sorry gals, I will explain, the mosaics are the colored acrylic powders from creative so yes I created the tools from colored acrylic. I made the tools up ahead of time and then attached them to the nails when the nails were finished, sentimental as I am I wanted to keep the tools...lol

The nail pics are what I submitted to the creative masters mosaic art contest, they held a contest amongst the masters to create art using their colored acrylic powders.contest info: http://creative4pros.com/company/Mosaic rules.html

Here are a couple pics of the mosaic powders:

They are awesome... how long did your model wear them for? And how long did they take you to do?
 
I worked on the tools for a week then I did the nails on my model took 5 hours then the photo shoot was 2 hours!
