Panda Manicure Design Options

Modern nail art knows no boundaries, as examples of unusual nail designs prove. Among a huge variety of ideas, one of the best designs is considered to be a panda manicure. What are its nuances, what you need to know about the methods of creating a bright accent of design and how to make a fun panda step by step, read on.

A panda manicure cannot be attributed to familiar or universal nail designs. Due to the theme of the print, it has some limitations in the selection of details of the outfit. This design is unique and beautiful, but it can not be used in some women's bows. For example, if the picture of a panda is still understandable in the bow of a student or employee of a catering point, then in the image of a business woman or manager it is categorically unacceptable.

It doesn’t matter at all how professional and realistic the image will be: it cannot be called strict; moreover, it does not fit into the tradition of the dress code. And also this design is often inappropriate in the evening images of women going out into the light. Rather, it is a cute and sometimes funny nail design for teenagers and fans of marshmallow designs. In addition, such a manicure will be harmonious in the bow of Lolita, fans of the Harajuku styles, decor, ganguro.

The colors for manicure with a panda try to pick up the most delicate and natural. Suitable for this decor as a main background, any shade of pastel colors. The print implies lightness, it is often performed very simply, drawing on a white or milk basis. In addition to these tones, such a shade are an excellent background for a panda design:

• beige;
• powdery;
• light yellow;
• yellow orange;

• pale turquoise;
• mint;
• cornflower;
• peach pink;

• pistachio;
• warm green;
• blue;
• gray pink;
• sand;
• purple.

Pandas decorate not only light tones of the basis of accent nails. Funny bears look harmonious on a bright pink, purple, black and light gray background. At the same time, dark tones are an excellent basis for use in addition to working paints of silver or even gold.

There are many ways to depict a panda on accented nails of a manicure.

A traditional embodiment is painting with a thin brush, dots or a special pen for acrylic gel paints. The paints used are dried in a drying lamp, while a manual type drawing can turn out to be not only flat, but also voluminous. Manual drawing does not limit the wizard in design.

A manicure can be not only traditional, but also compositional, in which one storyline can be located on two or even three nails of one hand. You can draw a panda with one paint, white and black, and also perform it in the form of an unpainted sketch. If the master has drawing skills, the panda can be realistic. When styling is needed, the image can be stylized.

When you need to depict a panda very quickly, you have to resort to alternative methods. One of them is stamping the finished pattern using a special roller and engraved plates. The method is unique and allows you to "plant" a beautiful panda on your nails in a few seconds. The only drawback is the limited design: it is as it is, the shape will be unchanged. However, stamping also has advantages: the drawing is neat and accurate.

Sliders are unique in that they can change the perception of manicure, complementing its accent nails with stylish and beautiful images. Of the wide variety, decals are more convenient to use, which fit perfectly on the surface of the nail plates and can be straightened without much effort. One of the advantages of this decor is the hardening of the sharpened nail, because the film can occupy the entire nail plate.

Modern nail design involves two essential parts of the work: medical and decorative manicure. Without the first, it is impossible to get a high-quality final result. The nails are shaped, the cuticle and the skin ingrown on the sides are removed. Then they are polished, removing the gloss in order to keep the coating on the nails longer and stronger.

In addition to preparing nails, you need to prepare acrylic gel paints, a thin brush, dots or a special pen. Dots are used for eyes or spot-painting techniques. To make the drawing beautiful, you need to try to portray it at least on plastic in advance, having outlined the desired shape. This will allow you to keep within the available area and fill your hand a little.

Consider two original ways to create a beautiful panda pattern.

• the nails are covered with a base layer, dried, then stained with light green varnish;
• the varnish is dried and the staining is repeated with drying;
• using stamping with stripes create the effect of a bamboo background, using green color for the picture, the pattern is dried;
• on an accent nail over a stamping, draw a circle with white acrylic paint;

• at the edge of the nail, a white circle is painted over with black paint, imitating the body of a panda;
• black ears are added on top of the ball, then a muzzle is drawn;
• Having dried the print in a drying lamp, it is sealed with a top and dried again.

To make the picture more interesting, you can mix black paint with white. Gray color will allow to draw a shadow in some places of the muzzle, which will add volume to the picture. An interesting version of the panda can be drawn for seasonal manicure. For this:

• draw two white droplets with a blunt top on an accent nail (head and trunk);
• ears and horns are painted on top of the head;
• from one side of the future panda draw a rounded triangle, on the other draw two paws (a turned tick and an uneven oval);
• ears draw in black, draw a muzzle;
• for greater expressiveness, black paint creates wool with uneven strokes, creating a contour of the muzzle with them and tinting the body;
• white paint draw the contours of the paws and heels;
• It remains to paint the snow with the help of the dots and draw, if desired, the decor near the horns.

To make the drawing look more beautiful, you can use ready-made schemes that clearly show the drawing steps. For example, this scheme of a sitting panda consists of only six steps, when it is created, black and white paint is used:

• on an accent nail draw an oval;
• below, a part of the body is painted on it;
• in the middle of the body marking of the belly is applied;
• on the sides paint ovals - panda legs;
• draw a muzzle;
• they fill in the oval contours around the eyes, ears and body, except for the paunch.

You can take the oval as a basis and step by step depict a sitting panda:

• on an accent nail outline the contours of the oval;
• in the upper part they draw a nose, depicting a tiny smile;
• on two sides of the smile, oval eyes are drawn, leaving dots not painted inside;
• black ears are painted on top;
• on the right under the face draw a circle (it will be a paw);
• on the other hand draw a bold arched strip (second paw);
• two lower paws in the form of elongated ovals are painted on the bottom of the oval.

Pandas can beat the traditional French. To do this, instead of the arch of a smile, a semicircle is drawn with white acrylic paint, on top of which the ears are painted. Inside the circle, eyes and nose are drawn. Such a print will look especially beautiful on a transparent or nude basis.

If you want something else, you can simply put four points on the accent nail, depicting the ears and eyes. For a more interesting effect, the contours give the effect of wool, painting the edges with small strokes. In order for the dots to turn into a panda face, it remains to draw a nose below and a smiling mouth.
