Again, I'm going out of order, but just deal with it. I'll cover them all in the end.
A unicorn is supernatural correct? I'm taking it from the definition of "being seemingly against the laws of nature." This is Buttercup the Unicorn from Toy Story 3.
This is the sweetest supernatural thing I've seen in...... maybe forever.
I first painted my nails with China Glaze Lemon Fizz, then China Glaze Crackle Lightening Bolt. Then I did a coat of Sally Hansen Glass Slipper for an extra magical quality. I freehanded Buttercup with acrylic paints.

I realize I'm going out of order, but I haven't had time to execute my idea for "inspired by a pattern" just yet, so rather than sit on these pictures.... I wanted to show them to you and I'll come back to Day 21 when I get done. ;) My blog, my rules. Lol
The base polish is Zoya Kristen stamped with Barielle Coco Bar and the bundle monster pebble image. All of the Gargoyle art was done with acrylic paints.
Left is Hugo
Middle is Victor
Right is Lavergne
So I haven't forgotten about the challenge, I've just been scatter brained.

What better cartoon fashion than Cinderella's Glass Slipper? I had no choice but to use Sinful Colors Cinderella and Sally Hansen Diamond Strength Glass Slipper!
I used Color Club Starry Temptress Topcoat and China Glaze Fairy Dust for my little glitter swirls on the other nails.
Here is a gif tutorial of how I painted the thumb nail.

The Emperor's New Groove!
These were suggested by a follower but you didn't leave your name?! So thanks to whoever you are. You reminded me of this hilarious cartoon that I had forgotten about! Emperor Kuzco is turned into a llama and has to learn some important lessons. David Spade and John Goodman are some of the contributing voices.
I mainly used this image as inspiration.
I started to paint the lettering orange, but it didn't show up well enough. I just painted yellow on top.
What do you think? Did you see this movie growing up?

It's another Thursday and time for more Peculiar Polish! Nev from Nevorpurify's Nail Art is helping me out by designing looks that are more obscure cartoon characters. If you have a suggestion for her, just fill out the embedded form at the bottom of the page! Here's Nev->  |
| Maleficent is the villainess in Disney's adaptation of Sleeping Beauty. She sometimes takes the form of a dragon - one of the coolest dragon designs in animation! I'm happy that Eva suggested this tutorial, because two of my favorite nail artists have previously done Maleficent nail designs, so I feel honored to offer my take on the character (check out Robin Moses's here and Sonoma Nail Art's here). |
 |
| Sorry about the orientation, I tried to no avail to fix it without success. Start out with grey nails. |
 |
| Add on darker grey blobs. To preserve the shape of Maleficent's face begin by only outlining her face. Outline the dragon in black as well. |
 |
| For the non-accent fingers add in stripes of different shades of grey and purple. For Maleficent's face use a very light grey. After you fill in her face, add in here horns and neck line. Use yellow to fill in the dragon's mouth and put black teeth on top of it. The dragon's belly is purple. |
 |
| Detail Maleficent's face by adding eyebrows and a nose. Just below her eyebrows add in light purple eyeshadow. |
 |
| Give the dragon a nose, eyes, and stripes on her belly. Conclude with Maleficent's eyes, lips, and use light grey to stripe her horns. |

I can't help but think of fairies when I think of glitter. So I focused on the 3 fairy godmothers from Sleeping Beauty: Flora, Fauna, & Merryweather. I wanted them to be surrounded by a cloud of glitter and I hope I succeeded.
The background color is OPI Crown Me Already, then I painted them with acrylic paints. Once finished, I topped them all off with what else? China Glaze Fairy Dust!
In the sunlight they really sparkle!
Red is Flora
Green is Fauna
Blue is Merryweather
An intentionally blurry pic to show the glittery goodness.
And this is what they looked like before I topped it with Fairy Dust. Do you think it would have been better left alone? Or was the Fairy Dust a good move?
Next up is Half Moons! O.o

Wow, this one was a tough one! And it's technically not a "tribal print." But I'm sure you don't mind, right? ;)
The Lost Boys from Neverland that stay with Peter Pan. Have you ever realized that there are no "lost girls?" Peter explains that this is because girls are much too clever to get lost. Lol.
Background is Zoya Jules, all else is acrylic paints.
I liked them best with a matte topcoat.
But this is with a glossy topcoat.
Tutorial pics after a jump
2 coats of Zoya Jules
Acrylic paint
2 coats of Seche Vite
What do you think of these guys? Do they fit a tribal theme?

Did you guess this one right? Flowers! How could I not do "Flower" from Bambi!? It was a perfect match.
You can also check out this other
Bambi design I did a while back.
I started by painting all of my nails with Sinful Colors Black on Black. The middle nail is painted with SPAritual Eye of the Beholder with black acrylic paint already started for Flower's outline.
Then white acrylic paint. You can see I just splotched on the flower shapes on the non-"Flower" nail.
The rest I think is pretty self explanatory....
2 thick coats of Seche Vite to even everything out!
"Delicate" is next! Whatever shall I do? You'll have to wait and see! It's a good one!
