This week's challenge was hard! Dotting tools only... what can you do with just dots? Plus, I'm a little challenged when it comes to making evenly round dots... but after this mani I think I've improved a lot, and I might actually use my dotting tools a lot more in the future:
Base is ulta3 Mermaid Green, dots are OPI Skull and Glossbones, and ulta3 Black Satin and Lily White.
The panda was done with a range of different-sized dotting tools - I didn't quite have enough white loaded on the tool for the face so I had to spread it out a bit, but I think it ended up looking ok, if a little bit uneven...
What's your favourite dotty design?
