I recently received a request from naiilartlover.blogspot.com to see some nail art incorporating a cute pig like Monokuro Boo. I had to look that up to know what it was, but once I did I couldn't resist. It is quite a cute pig. Let's hope I managed to do it justice.
I started with China Glaze Laced Up (I did this tutorial during Pink Week). Then added tiny white dots using a dotting tool and Sinful Colors Snow Me White.
Then I started the basic shapes with black acrylic paint. Acrylic paint is thinner and dries much faster. It's much easier to use with nail art than layers of polish.
Add some white acrylic paint for the white pig.
After this add the nostrils. I forgot that picture!
Then for the little black pig - same basic steps.
If you try it out let me know! I want to see. Hope this helps you Bo @ naiilartlover.blogspot.com!
