The Dark Knight Rises (Tonight)

Thursday, July 19, 2012

I'm going to go see The Dark Knight Rises in a few hours at the midnight premiere. I am really excited! I of course, had to paint my nails in accordance with my plans. I believe that these are a little more true to the comic.

I used Zoya Rehka* as the red base, then sponged a gradient with Wet'n'Wild Black Creme in a circular gradient instead of down the nail. I then used the two Bundle Monster plates from the first and second series (can't recall the plate numbers at the moment, sorry! A friend has those plates) with the bat images to stamp them randomly with Konad Black Special Polish. Then, I applied a matte coat (OCC Flatline) and FINALLY (good grief, did I have enough steps?) I use a glossy top coat on top of just the bats to accent them. On my middle accent finger, I hand drew Batman (he's supposed to be swooshing the cape over his shoulder, my mother said he looks like a cat) with Zoya Rehka, Wet'n'Wild Black Creme and Konad White Special Polish.

Anyone else going to go see The Dark Knight Rises?
