Pikachu

Two of my guy friends have been (separately) bugging me to do Pokemon nails... I had plans to do some elaborate thing with a different started Pokemon on each nail, but when I finally had time to do some nail art I was feeling a little lazy, so this is what I ended up with and I'm super happy with it!

As I was scouring the internet for simple(ish) Pokemon nail art ideas, I came upon this design which I thought was adorable!  The original photo has no watermark, so if anyone knows whose photo it is, please let me know so I can give credit.

The base is two coats of Barry M Watermelon, which I absolutely adore.  I painted everything else 

freehand with acrylic paints and topped it off with two coats of Seche Vite.  

I've never really gotten into Pokemon (shhhh...) but I have a few friends who have the new Pokemon X and/or Y and they look pretty fun, so I might pick one of those up sometime soon.  Either way, I still loved having the adorable Pikachu on my nails!  :)
