Panda Manicure Design Options

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

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

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 looks of women going out. Rather, it's a cute and sometimes funny nail art for teenagers and fans of marshmallow designs. In addition, such a manicure will be harmonious in a lolita bow, fans of harajuku styles, decor, ganguro.

They try to choose colors for a manicure with a panda that are delicate and as natural as possible. Any shade of pastel scale is suitable for this decor as the main background. The print implies lightness, often it is done very simple, drawing on a white or milk base. In addition to these tones, the following shades 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;
• lilac.

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

You can depict a panda on accent nails of a manicure in different ways.

The traditional option is to paint with a thin brush, dots or a special pen for acrylic gel paints. The paints used are dried in a drying lamp, while a hand-drawn pattern can turn out not only flat, but also voluminous. Drawing by hand does not limit the artist 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 turn out to be realistic. When styling is needed, the image can be styled.

When you need to very quickly portray a panda, you have to resort to alternative techniques. One of them is stamping a 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 limitation of the drawing: 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 a manicure, complementing accent nails with stylish and beautiful images. Of the wide variety, decals are more convenient to work with, which fit perfectly on the surface of the nail plates and can be straightened without much effort. One of the advantages of such a decor is the hardening of the worn-off nail, because the film can occupy the entire nail plate.

Modern nail design implies two mandatory 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, cuticles and ingrown skin on the sides are removed. Then they are sanded, removing the gloss so that the coating stays 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 the eyes or the dots painting technique. To make the drawing beautiful, you need to try in advance to depict it at least on plastic, outlining the desired shape. This will allow you to fit into the available area and fill your hand a little.

Let's look at two original ways to create a beautiful panda drawing.

• nails are covered with a layer of base, dried, then painted with light green varnish;
• the varnish is dried and the staining is repeated with drying;
• using stamping with stripes, they create the effect of a bamboo background, using green for the picture, the pattern is dried;
• on the accent nail over the 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 to the top of the ball, then a muzzle is drawn;
• after drying the print in a drying lamp, it is sealed with a top and dried again.

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

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

To make the drawing look more beautiful, you can use ready-made diagrams that clearly show the drawing steps. For example, this scheme of a seated panda consists of only six steps; when creating it, they use black and white paint:

• an oval is drawn on the accent nail;
• below, a part of the body is painted on to it;
• in the middle of the body, markings are applied to the belly;
• ovals are painted on the sides - panda legs;
• draw a muzzle;
• paint over oval contours around the eyes, ears and torso, except for the belly.

You can take an oval as a basis and depict a seated panda step by step:

• on the accent nail outline the contours of the oval;
• in the upper part of it they draw a nose, depicting a tiny smile;
• on both sides of the smile, oval eyes are drawn, leaving unpainted dots inside;
• black ears are painted on top;
• on the right, under the muzzle, draw a circle (this will be a paw);
• on the other hand, draw a bold arcuate strip (second paw);
• at the bottom of the oval, paint on two lower paws in the form of elongated ovals.

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

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