Superhero Week!

I really, reeeaally need superpowers, k?

That is why I am starting a Superhero week on Nail Asylum!

It is about time I go back to my favorite comic book theme and into painting my nails as I should.

I have no idea which characters will I pick for my designs, but they all will be related to comics and every design will be filled with my love and adoration.

So next week, starting on November 18th, I will be posting a superhero nail art marathon.

I needed that, I really did. Stay tuned, or better yet, join me!

This should be fun.

Gotham City Impostors Nail Art.

Well I guess the week has passed and it's time for the nail art, that was chosen by you. 

( By the way I'd like to thank everyone who voted this week! I'm not sure why the rest of you choose not to vote but I'm glad that at least some of you did.)

This weeks nail art is inspired by the new first-person shooter multiplayer-only video game called Gotham City Impostors.

If you never got round to playing it, the game is a squad-based shooter that lets up to 12 players (Batmanz vs. Jokerz) face-off on the streets of Gotham City.

I like the game because it actually lets you customize your own characters. Skinny Batman with cardboard mask on his head or muscular green haired Jokers wearing underwear over their pants - everything is possible in this game.

Long story short here is the nail art -

I chose to draw the portraits of the two main characters on thumbs simply because it would not be a Gotham inspired nail art without them.

Mainly all I did is I painted the nails in the colors of the characters, and added funny looking toy eyes, which I got at the craft store, simply because all the characters in the game are funny looking and a bit silly.

Tools, as usual - Toothpick. You don't need anything else to make this nail art. So go ahead and try it!

I have spent only an hour and a half on creating this design.

Thank you for stopping by! Be sure to come back next week for more fun and easy nail art!

And don't be scared to leave a comment!

Injustice: Gods Among Us Nail Art

Another Wednesday and another game themed nail art!

As most of you may already know, Injustice: Gods Among Us is an upcoming fighting game with DC comics villains and heroes that will be released in 2013. 

Oh, wow.. I can't wait!

Can you imagine Superman fighting Wonder Woman, or Flash? I bet this is going to be epic.

And the best part for me is that Harley Quinn is one of the confirmed characters in the game! <3

Enough about the game, take a look at the nails:

I really tried to make all the lines nice and thin, but I always have a problem with the Wonder Woman symbol.. -__- 

I just can't make it looks good. Meh, never liked her anyways.

I think you can recognize the majority of the symbols, and the two on the grey backgrounds are - Cyborg and Solomon Grundy. This is how their symbols are shown in the game.

To create this design I've used polish, needles, thin brushes and acrylic paint,just so that the circles would stay where they supposed to.

I was surprised that it took me only about an hour and a half (maybe even less I don't know exactly) to make this! I mean - it is fast comparing to my other designs.

I love how it looks on my nails and I'm going to wear it as long as possible!

Hope you like this weeks nail art. 

Feel free to comment and come back soon for more fun nail art designs for  your nails!

Justice League Silhouettes Nail Art

This week it will be simple as it can be. Justice League Silhouettes Nail Art. I think that the white background looks the best with the black figures, but it really does not matter at all.

It was not easy to make actually, I've been trying to make it look good several times and this is how the result looks like: 

I've used a mechanical pencil to draw the silhouettes, but if you want to try this design, it is better to use  needle or a toothpick.

When making the logos on them, you can try white acrylic paint, just beacause sometimes it is easier to apply making thin details. And also, if it came out too thick , you can always fix it using black polish and a toothpick.
