Purple roses on lemon meringue

 

 

The base color is Models Own Lemon Meringue, a gorgeous light pastel yellow. It was opaque in two coats and dried quickly. On top of that I put a layer of Lilaquer Selkie, a subtle green reflecting top coat, and of course it would have a much stronger effect on a dark color. The flowers I painted with acrylic colors and I top coated with Seche Vite.

Grundfarven er Models Own Lemon Meringue, en smuk lys pastelgul. Den dækkede ved to lag, og tørrede hurtigt. Over den lagde jeg et lag Lilaquer Selkie, der giver en diskret grønt shimmer skær, den har naturligvis en langt stærkere effekt på en mørk farve. Blomsterne malede jeg med akrylfarver, og jeg top coatede med Seche Vite.

Models Own Ice Cream Sundae coll. swatches

I recently bought Models Own Ice Cream Sundae box set
They are all cream colors and I found that most of them are a bit brighter than the bottle show. Here you have them shown in two coats, and as always I'll later show you the colors with nail art...
A quick question: I love to see swatches on your blogs. But nail art is where my heart is, so "real swatches" doesn't quite give me pleasure to do myself. But I like to do them on swatch sticks, because I focus on the color, nothing else - and I try to show them very true to color (if you screen is calibrated correctly).
So how do you feel about this kind of swatches?
Jeg købte fornylig Models Own Ice Cream Sundae box set
Det er creme lakker, og de fleste virker en smule klarerer/stærkere i farven end flasken giver indtryk af. Her har du dem i to lag, og som sædvanlig vil jeg senere vise nogle af farverne med nail art...
Og et lille hurtigt spørgsmål: Jeg elsker at se swatches på andres blogge. Men nail art er hvor mit hjerte ligger, så "rigtige swatches" giver mig ikke længere glæde at arbejde med. Men jeg kan faktisk godt li' at vise farverne på på swatchs sticks som her, fordi jeg fokuserer på farven og intet andet, jeg viser dem tæt på den rigtige farve, hvis din skærm ellers er rigtigt kalibreret.
Så hvad synes du on denne måde at præsentere farver?
