Nail art of the Week: Pokemon!!

Pikachu and Poke balls

For this week's nail art I decided to make another themed design. I have always loved cute little pikachu and I decided to make him the focus of the design. The pikachu is handpainted and was achieved making my homemade nail stickers, which is the technique I use any time that I do a cartoon nail design or a more complicated nail design since it allows me to make a more perfect, detailed design since it is not painted directly on the nail. I discuss this technique more in depth in my "Mickey Snoopy and Goofy oh my" blog post click here to see this blogpost. I am trying to decide what I want to do for future nail of the week posts, I am toying with the idea of Diary of a Wimpy Kid nails. I am enjoying doing the cartoon nails but they don't have to be, if there is a nail look you want me to try be sure to leave me a comment and let me know. Thanks so much for reading!
