Out of interest, can masks work if you're wanting to put a darker detail on a light background, for example, a french or just pale colour with say, I dunno, hearts around the smile line?
Obviously with a stencil the hearts would go on last, but as a mask works in negative, as it were, surely you would have to put on the colour for the hearts first, then mask them and go on to do the paler colour over the top before removing the mask to reveal the hearts again.
Can this actually work, or would this be an instance where you would have to use a stencil? Or is there sold a range of airbrush paints where light colour easily cover dark?
I'm intruiged because I'm looking at shelling out for airbrush stuff, and half the designs I'm thinking of in my head I can't image being able to do with masks.
Likewise I've seen designs done with masks with multiple layers of colour, for example flowers with detailed petals, centre area etc (go to creativenailplace.com, look at their masks and you'll see what I mean)... does this mean using a whole set of masks that have to be layered on top of each other, or at least onto the same spot on the nail?
Confused.....
