So 1 is the gold standard, 2 is the acid flashback, 3 is the one everyone loves, 4 (or World) is the one with Yoshi and then I stopped playing the Super Mario games. But some things stick with you forever, and it was high time I gave the nail art treatment to one of my favourite childhood video game franchises (bested only by the Donkey Kong Country games, which are a nail art subject for another day!)

Look at that detail! I never even played these games really but I recognized it immediately…excellent job!
Thank you! Holy crow, these nails took a very long time. I think I’m in love with my new bitty detail brush, though.
I love the way you’ve added those glittery highlights! Who knew Mario could be so fabulous!
Well, one does want a hint of colour, no? Actually, glitter makes a surprisingly great highlighter. So do holographic polishes. Just a dab’ll do ya.
it is amazing . superb u did it ur self???
Thank you! And I did – and it took FOREVER! The super detailed ones always do. 🙂
These are brilliant!
Thank you! To totally toot my own horn here, I kind of impressed myself with these, too.
