Creepy Forest

 I'm so eager to do Halloween nails, I just had to start early! I decided to paint a creepy looking forest, complete with Slenderman because Slendy is awesome.
 I started out with a base of ORLY Mirror Mirror, which is a light gray. It doesn't show on the final product, but I think it keeps the colors more subdued than if they were over a pure white. Next, I used a sponge and added a light dusting of Wet n Wild Teal Slowly and See across the middle of each nail. I then used Nina Blue La La and a tiny touch of ORLY Royal Velvet to darken the top of the sky, and Spoiled Correction Tape to lighten near the horizon. SpaRitual Basalt, a dark gray, was used to make the ground. To add a little more eerie ambiance, I used a small amount of Sinful Colors Exotic Green in the sky and the ground.
 I then added a moon to my middle nail, using Spoiled Correction Tape. Trees were done with a small brush and Sinful Colors Black on Black. Slenderman was painted on my ring nail using Correction Tape and Black on Black as well.
Colors Used:
ORLY Mirror Mirror
Wet n Wild Teal Slowly and See
Nina Blue La La
 ORLY Royal Velvet
Spoiled Correction Tape
SpaRitual Basalt
Sinful Colors Exotic Green
Sinful Colors Black on Black
