Breaking Bad Nail Art



This is a nail art tutorial based on one of my favourite TV shows; Breaking Bad. It features the Br Ba logo on the thumbnail, Heisenberg/Walter White on the accent nail and the remaining nails are sparkly blue to represent their 'product' Blue Sky :)

1)

For this nail art you will need five varnishes; a dark green, black, white, clear/pale glitter and light blue. My first three are from a Nail Star set, then I have used Barry M #264 Pink Iridescent and Barry M#306 Blueberry Ice Cream.

2)

Start by painting your thumbnail dark green, your accent nail white and the remaining three nails with your light blue shade. Using two thin coats usually works best.

3)

The first stage of this nail art is to create the 'Blue Sky' design; do this by painting two coats of your glitter polish on top of the blue nails, the more glitter the better :)

4)

The thumbnail is probably the most tricky part of this nail art; begin by using your white shade to carefully paint the first 'B' in the top left corner of your nail - if you find using the brush is difficult, try using a toothpick instead.


5)

Again using your white polish, add a lower-case 'r' next to the first 'B'. Then paint another 'B' just below and right of the 'r'. 

6)

The lower-case 'a' is probably the most difficult letter; start by painting the top curved part and bring the line straight downwards, then add the circular/loop part of the letter. 

7)

The final stage of the Breaking Bad design is the infamous Heisenberg poster; begin by using your black polish and paint a line about 2/3 up your nail, as in the first picture (sorry for the bad quality!). Next, add the square on top of your line to create his hat, then paint another line about half way up your nail. 

8)

Next, add two semicircles underneath your line to create his sunglasses.

9)

To finish the Heisenberg design add a curved black line beneath the sunglasses to create the moustache :)

And this is the finished Breaking Bad nail art design :)
