Superhero Week. Day 1.

Ah, and so the Super week begins!

I personally am not a big fan of Superman, but how can it be a super week without a superman himself?! This is why he is the inspiration for a day 1 - the very first.

SUPERMAN, also known as the Man Of Steel is one of the most powerful superheroes in the DC Universe. His abilities include incredible super-strength, super-speed, invulnerability, freezing breath, flight, and heat-vision. Born as Kal-El on the dying planet Krypton, his parents Jor-El and Lara sent him in a rocket to the planet Earth where he would be the last surviving member of his race. 

 Although he is an alien to this world, he heavily values his humanity, and fights with conviction for truth, justice, and the American way. 

"It is a remarkable dichotomy. In many ways, Clark is the most human of us all. Then... he shoots fire from the skies and it is difficult not to think of him as a god. And how fortunate we all are that it does not occur to him."

So, what do you think about this Kryptonian?

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.

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.

DC Comics Characters Nail Art.

This is an easy design but I had a whole lot of fun making it and it takes a healthy two hours which gets pretty tedious but meh.
