wandfarben design
hi everyone! here's a new nail art tutorialperfect for all you animal lovers! yay! i'll show you how to create 5 cute and easy animaldesigns: a cow, a flamingo, a panda, an owl and a bee. for some you will only need a toothpickfor others tape or a paint brush. so there's really something there for everyone. i hopeyou like the video and let's dive into the animal world. before applying nail polish,we have to make sure our nails will stay healthy and beautiful so cover them with a base coatfirst. this will protect them but also assure our designs will last longer without chipping.on my pointer i will draw a panda and bamboo plants. start off with a medium green shadefor the base. draw on some bamboo stalks with a light green polish and a striper. bambooactually represents 99% of panda's diet! it
is one of the fastest growing plants in theworld. high quality bamboo is stronger than steel, which makes it very useful as a buildingmaterial. here i am adding some details to the stems to make them look a bit more realisticso draw darker green short lines with a toothpick. now it's time to add some leaves, which isactually panda's favorite part of a bamboo. here i mixed a light green with some whitepolish and i am making some highlights to the leaves. since bamboo is nutritionallypoor, pandas have to consume up to twenty kilograms of it each day! and this takes upto 16 hours! yep, they do take time for their meals. ok, now to the cutest part of thisdesign, the panda. take your white nail polish, and draw a circle on the tip of your naillike so. dip a fairly large dotting tool into
black polish and make two dots for the ears.you can use a q-tip if you don't have a dotting tool. next, make two black oval patches forthe eyes like so. draw a small oval nose and a mouth on the bottom of the nail. lastly,make two small white dots for the eyes. apply a generous amount of the fast drying top coatand our adorable panda design is complete. on my right hand i drew bamboo plants on allthe nails, with a panda on my ring finger as an accent. i think this manicure is justso gorgeous! this design is probably the easiest, but socool! especially, since you will only need a toothpick to make it! we're making an adorablecow. paint your nails white. draw a half circle shape on the tip of your nail using a mediumor light pink shade. then make four black
dots. two for the eyes and two for the nose.next draw several black patches using a dotting tool and black polish. the last step is toapply a top coat to bring the design together. how flipping cool is this design right! ilove that you don't need any special tools to make it, it's done fast and the resultis fabulous. next design is so summery because of the brightcolors. we are making a flamingo! start off with a pale blue or minty green as a baseto represent the lake. flamingos live in areas of saltwater lakes or coastal lagoons. drawhalf of a circle on the tip of the nail using a bright pink polish. now take a striper orjust a paint brush like me, dip it into a bit darker pink polish and outline the upperedge of the circle. now draw a curved neck
and a head like this. it doesn't have to beperfect at first. just sketch the shape and you can smooth the lines later. flamingosare known for their beautiful pink color and standing on one leg. some studies say thatthey do this to preserve body heat, but flamingos in warmer waters also tend to do it... somaybe that's just the way they like to chill. draw a white beak and add a touch of blackat the end of it. use a toothpick and black polish to dot an eye. you can leave your designlike this or add a few feathers on the body for some definition using a pale and a darkerpink shades. the pink color of flamingo's feathers is caused by the pigments in theirfood, which includes shrimps, plankton and algae. to finish the design apply a layerof fast drying top coat. i think this design
is so beautiful. it would make a perfect accentto a solid pink or minty green manicure. next we are making a pretty owl design. owlshave been very popular in fashion lately! i've seen them on t-shirts, necklaces, purses,everywhere... so why not having a cute owl on our nails too. first i am applying a palepink for the base. you can use any colors you want for this design. and you know me...i love me some color, so my owl will be out of this world colorful. to make owl's bodyi will be using a tape. we need two pieces of it. on the first one draw a letter v witha pencil and cut away the excess tape. on the other piece draw a curved line like thisand cut along that line. this is the part that we will be using. place this piece oftape on the tip of the nail like so and the
v-shaped piece on the top part of the nail.color the space in the middle with any color of your choice. owls are mostly brown or white,which keeps them hidden on the trees or in the snow, but i am going for the blue. whenyou remove the tape you are left with a shape of owl's body. just make few corrections hereand there to perfect it. once you're happy with the shape, take a q-tip, dip it intowhite polish and make two big dots for the eyes. we'll get back to the eyes when thewhite polish dries, but in the meantime let's make our owl a wing. i chose a pink for it.due to the special feather structure owls are able to fly almost silently, which givesthem a strong advantage when they look for food. here i am drawing a small triangle formy owl's beak. you can use a toothpick or
a paint brush like me. to finish the eyes,make two smaller black dots inside the white ones. owls are known for their big eyes. didyou know that they cannot move them? instead they rotate the entire head for 270 degreesto visualize the surroundings. draw a branch so that our owl can sit on it and finish witha pair of legs. apply a layer of the fast drying top coat to seal your design and protectit. how adorable is this little owl? i love switching colors with abstract ones so thatdesigns always turn out unique. for the last design i am making a bee. weneed a green base to represent the lawn. bees have an important role in pollination andreproduction of plants. they also produce honey and beeswax! to draw a bee start witha large black dot using a q-tip. draw a body
with a paint brush, by making an oval shapelike so. you can also add a stinger, although many bees are actually stingless. now drawvertical black lines on bee's body. outline the wings and draw couple of antennae on itshead. i am also making a small dot for the nose. time to take the yellow polish and colorup spaces of bee's body. bee's wings are transparent but i will color them in white. lastly i ammaking a small white dot for the eye and our bee is completed. now we just need to drawsome details to make the design more dynamic and interesting. make several black dots forthe bee's path like so. i am also going to draw some flowers. make two dots for the pistiland then several dots around for the petals. to make the flower more realistic you candrag the toothpick from the petals towards
the pistil while the polish is still wet.this will give you that 3d effect. ok, now our bee has a flower to collect the nectarfrom. apply a layer of the fast drying top coat to seal this beautiful design. this designrequires some freehand drawing but if you lay both hands on the table, you'll see it'sactually very easy to make. let me know in the comments, which design was your favorite.if you try them out, please share your recreations with me on twitter, facebook and instagram.it makes me so happy to see your amazing works of art. please give this video a thumbs upif you would like to see another episode of the animal nail art. i love you and i willsee you soon. bye! we all need to remember that we are not theonly ones living on this planet. a world without
