Band Nails

When I am not wasting my time painting my nails I am also a bass player in a few bands, and I go to as many gigs as I can. For a few of them I have painted my nails for them, enjoy x

The Specials

These nails took forever to paint. I used the specials/ska man to break up the design slightly on the accent nail. I did leave these a little bit too late at night to do so ended up slightly smudging the black when I put the clear top coat on. They were very eye catching though and I do like the black and white contrast.

Foo Fighters

I didn't get the best photograph of this one which is a shame.

Iron Maiden

Steve Harris (the bass player from Iron Maiden) is my ultimate bass hero. He is amazing to listen to and to watch whilst he is playing. So when I went to see Iron Maiden for the second time I couldn't resist doing my nails. Copying the font on their logo I wrote the name on each nail by hand.

Black Sabbath

I did struggle coming up with a design when I went to see Black Sabbath. I was very tempted to just paint them black. But eventually I got a bit of inspiration and using gradient painting I mimicked the Sabbath Bloody Sabbath album cover.
