When you do a manicure, you most often use just one-color varnish. Few people think that you can make a real work of art on your nails on your own - and for this you do not need to pay a lot of money to the master. This article will focus on the fox manicure - autumn is in full swing, so you should try to bring your nails in line with the season. If you are good at drawing, then you can take on this job without any problems, but if not, then you should either practice, or ask someone you know, or choose some simpler drawing that you can handle on your own. When you do a fox manicure at home, there are no standards or criteria - only that you like the result.
Cooking
So, in order to make a manicure with a fox at home, you must first prepare everything you need for this. You will need a high-quality base for varnish, the varnish itself, which will serve as a background, acrylic paints with which you will apply the drawing, a thin brush that you will use to apply smalldetails and contours, as well as a very important ingredient - a dense top that will allow you to secure the composition. You can do everything perfectly, and then it will be extremely disappointing if after a couple of days the drawing starts to peel off. Therefore, try to use all high quality components - and then your fox manicure will turn out not only beautiful, but also durable.
Base application
If you decide to make yourself an autumn manicure with a fox, then the first step is to apply a base under the varnish. It must be applied in a thin layer, and then allowed to dry completely. Naturally, this should be done when your nails are already completely in order and ready for painting. If not, then you first need to cut them, file them, give them the desired shape, get rid of excess cuticles - in other words, perform all everyday operations related to nails and fingers, so that then you can do nothing with them for a while, so that do not damage the drawing. When the base coat is dry, you can proceed to the next step.
Background
To make a manicure with a fox pattern, you will need some kind of background for the pattern itself. It is best applied with a high-quality varnish that is highly resistant - again, so that the pattern on it lasts as long as possible. The base polish can be applied in one layer if you get it perfectly even right away - if not, then paint your nails again so that there are no imperfections this time.
Pattern base
This step is optional - you can skip it, but it's still recommended to try it, as it gives much more impressive results. The essence of this step is to apply a white background under the drawing, which will make the composition much more expressive. Just carefully apply white paint so that you get the outline of your fox or any other decorations that will complement the overall design.
Coloring
With the help of a thin brush, you can now make contrasting colors - choose not the closest shades so that the picture does not merge into a solid spot. The red color of the fox fur can be interspersed with white or brown, and the autumn leaves, which harmoniously complement the picture, can be made in any color, from red and yellow to green and burgundy. Act carefully so that you get a beautiful and bright drawing that will please your eye for a long period of time.
Details and accents
Here's how to make a fox manicure - photos of finished projects usually look very clear and accentuated. This effect is achieved with black paint and the thinnest brush you can find. Outline the fox drawing and any other elements with a thin black line to make them clearer. You can also add some elements, such as the veins on the leaves or the eyes of the fox, to make the drawing seem more alive and detailed.
Finishing
All you have to do is apply top,which will protect your artwork from any damage. Depending on your tastes, you can use both glossy and matte tops. Naturally, you should understand that it is best to paint each nail individually. When you completely decorate one nail from the very beginning to the end - move on to another. You should not try to be universal and apply the base on one nail, and while it dries, paint another, since on the third you will already have a finished drawing. Of course, such a detailed approach may require a little more time, but you should think that the result will be much more impressive, and you will be able to enjoy what you have created for a long time.
