The Nail Challenge Collaborative presents: Typography - Movie Posters

Hi all!

Last installment of Typography today. I found this site with movie posters designed by Patrik Svensson. So minimalistic and awesome!

Polishes:

• El Corazón - Matte Effect 124
• Lucky 13 Lacquer - Dark Matter
• Sally Hansen - 805 Resurrection
• HEMA - 12 Gipsy Blue
• Koh! - 185 Coral!
• Lucky 13 Lacquer - Elemental Ward
• Barry M - Matte Top Coat

Base: 2 coats of the grey El Corazón (hate the no names thing). With a nail art brush and Dark Matter I did most of the movie posters. The only colours I used are for the poster on my index finger. I had to blend the two blue polishes to get the blue colour I needed. Top coated with Elemental Ward first (to prevent streaking) and then mattefied it with my Barry M.

Can you guess which movies I'm wearing? Spoilers at the end!

So, thumbnail: Pippi Longstocking, index: The Matrix, middle: Jaws, ring: Groundhog Day, little: Batman Begins.

Love, Brethil

Of course more typography nails down here!
