Hi lovelies,
Wednesday already. Are you having a good week. I am, even though it’s been a pretty emotional one.
A few days ago acidicice asked me to do candy crush nails. I have to say that until this point I have never played – or even seen – anything about candy crush. Acidicice sent me some screenshots of her game and mentioned that she HAD to see the chocolate ball with sprinkles. I would like to disclose right now that I failed hugely. I spent 2 days on this and tried everything a few times before giving up and moving on. So I am not even joking when I say I failed. Avert your eyes, look away, save yourself!
I used a whole bunch of colours and changed them up often. Some of my issues were that I didn’t the colours worked. So for the first time ever I won’t be listing all the polishes I used but if you want to know about a specific colour please let me know. I’ll be happy to share.
I warned you 😉 I tried to freehand some of the different types of candy including the chocolate ball with sprinkles. I still suck at freehanding. I tried this about 3 times and this was honestly the best version.
I also thought about just doing the tips and I didn’t mind it as much until I had to add the white lines. It was also here that I realised I was probably using the wrong purple and should’ve used the purple I used in the first picture all along. Of course, chocolate ball and sprinkles is still there.
I actually preferred this one but wasn’t sure if it was obviously candy crush. And if I had used the right purple. I used striping tape to make the lines and it is much more in my comfort zone.
What do you think? Fail or epic fail? Do you play candy crush? I had no intention to ever want to play but I downloaded it while I did these and I can’t stop. Not only can I not stop, it is annoying. Stupid game 😛
Thanks for reading,
acidicice
The last one is definitely my favourite of the bunch! Any self respecting Candy Crush player will easily make the connection. The purple you used in the first pic is definitely the right one!
Thanks so much for taking the time to do these for me. You rock!

Thanks 🙂
gah if I had know that would be the better one I would’ve redone it with the right colours. I thought that would be your least favourite 😛
