Mermaid Scale Nails

Hi everyone, 
So after wearing Barry M Pacific (see swatches here) on my nails for a couple of days I knew I wanted to try out some nail art with it. I immediately had the idea of mermaid scales because the colour reminded me of the sea and the scale design on the nail polish bottle cap!
Here's a look at the design:


I used Barry M Pacific and Barry M Nail Art Pen in White












I really love this outcome and I think they nails really look like mermaid scales!











Here is a closer look:


Overall I really like these nails but I think I could have perhaps made the lines a bit thinner!
Do you like this design?
Have you tried this design before?
Let me know what you think
