honooko Posted December 7, 2023 Hi everyone, first post! Last weekend I went to the idoll convention in Tokyo and at least five booths had the most incredible fake nails/nails done on hand parts. (This was just one of the artists: https://twitter.com/_scintillante_ ) I have literally never seen this before and I absolutely love it. Unfortunately I didn't get to ask the artists about the process but they did seem to be mostly on vinyl hands; in my head, I feel like I could do something like this with UV resin stuff, but I'm used to work with resin, not vinyl. Would UV resin even stick? Rather than doing them straight onto the hand, I pictured making the nails and then gluing them on. Has anyone done these!? They're so cute!

uoub Posted December 7, 2023 I always loved doll nail art!! I believe most people use uv resin to make them! I can confirm uv resin sticks to vinyl, there's actually a shop on booth that sells DD skintone colored resin that a lot of people use for additive eye mods that I've used before and it works like a charm Also, there's tiny 3d printed DD nails on booth.pm that you can glue on or use temporarily (maybe??) that comes in longer styles I've also seen people add little charms and stuff to the hands its super cute ;_;!!!! I hope you have fun making some lil nails if you plan on it, I'd love to see. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ragnamuffin Posted December 17, 2023 Not quite what you asked, but apparently Volks released a blog post on painting DD nails back in August?! Just found this tonight so I’m leaving it here for anyone curious (and so I can find it again later 🤭) 1 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
