Gods knows!
This is my first go at stiletto's I know that the nail itself is a bit lop sided as it was harder than I thought.
However I'm not sure if the free edge should be more downwards or is it ok?
Also where are you pinching these nails, just at the side walls or further down as well?
I only done my pinkie as a first go, so if you could straighten me out with these questions I would be very grateful:)

:hug:
P.S............ I will put another pic of this in my album
 
its sloping down just a little too much. aesthetically its not a problem, looks fine, but it may give you a weak spot when you file .
from the side profile the edge of the extension should follow on level from the side walls of the nail.

looking good though:green:
 
Cool, thanks for the info :)
I did however see a tutorial saying that I had to place the form at a slight downwards angle, maybe I over did it xx
