Domo Kun nail art!!

Couldn't you just DIE for this japanese cutie? Capture the silliness and mischeif of this slack-jawed japanese character at your fingertips. Literally :-)

You will need:
  1. Light brown polish
  2. White polish
  3. Black polish
  4. red polish
  5. a light and a dark shade of blue
  6. clear sparkle glaze for extra shimmer :-D
  7. Your choice of topcoat
  8. If you'd like to get very detailed, nail art brushes or dotters are great, but they are optional for this design. :-)
What I used
Steps:
  1. Using the darker shade of blue, paint your index, middle, and pinky fingers.
  2. Paint your thumb and ring finger using the brown.
  3. With the lighter shade of blue, splatter some dots randomly onto your blue nails.
  4. A clear coat of sparkle polish on top of the splatters makes it nice and sparkly :-)
  5. Now to move on to the thumb and ring finger. Paint a white rounded square in the lower half of your nail, leaving a brown border around it. Fill in the white square. Do this on both fingers.
  6. (Here is where a dotting tool comes in handy) Draw two black dots for the eyes, above the square and spaced apart from each other. Little white shines in the eyes are optional.
  7. Be very careful, and use the red to make 4 V's in the white square, connecting to the top of the white square. The bottom of the V should be at the halfway point in the square.
  8. Do step 7 on the bottom half, making 4 upside down V's.
  9. Carefully color in any white spots inside the red lines. You should have 8 white teeth left.
  10. Apply your favorite top coat  and enjoy!

The blue nails should look something like this :-)

These guys turned out super messy! I'm sorry :( I didn't take a picture quick enough before it got all messed up.

Another view of my smeared Domo Kun's. The blue nails turned out perfect though.
