The Girl with the Dragon Nail Art

by - November 30, 2013

Hello Everyone. Happy weekend!!!
Today Mani was inspired by book. Lately I have been reading lots of novels. I kinda got habit of reading books before I go for sleep. So yeah in last two months I almost read half a dozen book. And one of them is THE GIRL WITH DRAGON TATTOO by Stieg Larsson. Famously also called the Millennium series. The one character that hooked me up with this book has to be Lisbeth Salander . She is a world class computer hacker. What inspired me to do this Mani is Salander has nine tattoo and one of them is Dragon. As I am so into this character - Lisbeth Salander is hands down the most intriguing and complex character I have ever read. So I decided to make a dragon on my nails just to kinda dedicate it to book. Let me show you the pic!!
But making dragon freehanded-ly is complex. I have been trying to make this Mani for last two weeks but I didn't have satisfied result. I wanted to make the same dragon that Salander has but it was almost impossible for me. So I searched a little less complex dragon and I found Exactly one. 
This dragon is no near with the tattoo on book but I am so satisfied with it. I just wanted a dragon my nails somehow. Ever since I read the book I knew I had to paint a dragon or I will go crazy haha.
Colors used are A coral orange from Bloom and Charm Limit Black.  I used toothpick and striper as usual. I am happy with the Final result. This Mani is something I was dying to do and I am so glad I did it finally. Now I can go back to my Sanity :D I hope you like it. Let me know on the comment below!
