Season 4 of Game of Thrones is about to start and to celebrate I tried my hand at doing a reptile scales style manicure.  My goal was to try and make it look dragonish.

I started off with one coat of Daphine Polish – Blue Spruce.  I did a gradient using Daphine Polish – The Hessian.  The Hessian is a holographic black polish but it is not thick so it required a couple of passes before I got it dark.  It certainly wasn’t the best choice to get the effect I wanted but I was committed to the look.  I used Mash plate Mash-39 that has a nice scale image and stamped it with Konad black.

I’m on the fence about this manicure.  I don’t hate it but I think my polish choice didn’t work for what I wanted.
