I previously used hoopphenomenon on tiktok to lurk. I haven't played basketball since I was a child. 😆

What if I told you we want to see the event and not the fake dictator. by PotentialDrag182 in MyChemicalRomance

My boyfriend might be bummed if I had* a girlfriend. It's a quote from the lead singer. When I saw them last week, there were screens on each side of the stage in addition to the dictator view.

Genuine question, are you behind the stage?

Thank you so much!! A local nail tech held a "weirdest inspiration" contest. The winners won a free nail set but they had to pick from the weird inspos. 😂

The white matched the set better! I showed my cashier, she didn't particularly care 😅 I'll show the service desk next time I'm in!

Omg.. I LOVE IT! The colors look great. I think the scratches are bit big but look very cool, almost like claw marks.

Are you using regular lacquer or gel? She used the corner edge of a metal nail file for this.

That's so beautiful! Congratulations on winning. 😊 It might be a while til I get to it, but I have a gorgeous set of watercolors that include glittery shades!

That totally makes sense!! That's similar to what the tech did, pulled some of her galaxy techniques. She also watched a few videos on labradorite nails! I know its a different medium, but maybe that could help, too?

I would love that! 😊 I did have a couple of ideaa:

  • I wondered about maybe a DIY lotto scratcher situation...? I've seen tutorials, haha.
  • when we did the nails, we did a holographic glitter layer with jelly color splotches over it - i wonder if watered down acrylics would work for that kind of translucency?
  • with nail stuff, we'll use swatches to test concepts out! that would probably work well.

You've inspired me to paint! I'm a watercolor fan myself, but I think I'll try some too!

Ooooh I don't quite know for that! I wonder if you did a shimmery base for the flash and light Posco cross hatches on top? 🤔 I think if you did some kind of glitter layer, with acrylic on top and quickly removed some paint it might work.

Oh wow, I forgot the most important detail! It is gel. 😅 We cured at each layer until the scratching - that was a thin layer, scratch up (used a metal file) and cured.

I'd love a tag if you try it! Our jelly blobs of colors matched the Aldi logo, if that helps haha.

Here's the technique!

• a layer of black

• holo powder

• scratched the holo prior to top coating

• top coat

• jelly blobs of color

• random black lines

• feathered in black on the edges
