STEPS

GlossaryLive Tag That Trend Milena Mingozzi The Witch Step 1

Choose a picture from which to gain inspiration & ideas for shape, structure & detailing.

GlossaryLive Tag That Trend Milena Mingozzi The Witch Step 2

 Draw an outline sketch of the witch as you want her to look.

GlossaryLive Tag That Trend Milena Mingozzi The Witch Step 3
GlossaryLive Tag That Trend Milena Mingozzi The Witch Step 4

Build the shape of your witch using white hobby clay. Manipulate & sculpt it into shape, then leave it to harden. Place a pin inside the body for stability.

GlossaryLive Tag That Trend Milena Mingozzi The Witch Step 5

Take a series of pink beads of acrylic & cover the entire clay form. Use a thin implement to start adding features to the body to sculpt her form. Start at her buttocks & down her spine.

GlossaryLive Tag That Trend Milena Mingozzi The Witch Step 6

Now sculpt her nose & form her facial features, creating hollows for eyes & humps for cheekbones to give her a wizened look.

GlossaryLive Tag That Trend Milena Mingozzi The Witch Step 7

Using a series of colored acrylic powders, monomer & brushes in a suitable size for each part of the body, give life & color to this witch.

GlossaryLive Tag That Trend Milena Mingozzi The Witch Step 8

Use small beads of acrylic to build out her boney chin.

GlossaryLive Tag That Trend Milena Mingozzi The Witch Step 9

Use a small nail art tool to gently sculpt her facial expression.

GlossaryLive Tag That Trend Milena Mingozzi The Witch Step 10

Use black ink in a pen to outline the eyes with black liner.

GlossaryLive Tag That Trend Milena Mingozzi The Witch Step 11

Take small dark colored acrylic beads & add warts to her face, & a big bushy eyebrow. Use a small nail art tool to give the eyebrow texture. Stick small hairs from an old art brush into the warts to make her look truly ghastly before they cure. A small white bead in the center of a darker bead to create her eyeball, will give the idea of a cataract, giving her a sense of moodiness.

GlossaryLive Tag That Trend Milena Mingozzi The Witch Step 12

Build up the character in her face with small beads of relevant shades around the eyes. Bring her character to life with careful placing of tiny beads.

GlossaryLive Tag That Trend Milena Mingozzi The Witch Step 13

Use varying shades of pink skin tone shades to highlight & shade the details on her face.

GlossaryLive Tag That Trend Milena Mingozzi The Witch Step 14

Move to her buttocks & legs, cover with a very thin, wetter bead of your chosen shade for her stockings.

GlossaryLive Tag That Trend Milena Mingozzi The Witch Step 15

Continue with the colored beads as you completely cover her legs.

GlossaryLive Tag That Trend Milena Mingozzi The Witch Step 16

Create the black stripes of the stockings using black ink, a pen & brush.

GlossaryLive Tag That Trend Milena Mingozzi The Witch Step 17

For the tailcoat to her cloak, take a wet bead of your chosen color & place it between two sheets of wax paper of the disused part of a nail form. Then use a roller to flatten & thin out the bead. Let it cure & then attach using an acrylic bead to the figurine.

GlossaryLive Tag That Trend Milena Mingozzi The Witch Step 18

Add the hair using the filaments from a black raven bird’s feather. This was collected from Milena’s garden. “Nature gives us everything for our work & our imagination,” Milena cites.

GlossaryLive Tag That Trend Milena Mingozzi The Witch Step 19

Use the same method as you used for the cloak to create a flat, thin piece of colored acrylic for her hat. Place this on your finger, use hot air if you need to make it softer, then fold it around your finger to create the shape of a hat.

GlossaryLive Tag That Trend Milena Mingozzi The Witch Step 20

Using a small bead of acrylic pop the hat on her head to stabilize it.

GlossaryLive Tag That Trend Milena Mingozzi The Witch Step 21

Before the hat cures, bend & shape it to make it look well worn.

GlossaryLive Tag That Trend Milena Mingozzi The Witch Step 22

To shape the fingers create tiny beads of skin-toned acrylic & create each single finger to look lumpy & boney, remembering to create bumps where her knuckles will sit. Sculpt each one with a tiny tool & micro beads of acrylic. Next sculpt her hands onto the end of the arms & attach each individual finger using a very small 3D brush.

GlossaryLive Tag That Trend Milena Mingozzi The Witch Step 23

Complete your witch by adding more of her cloak, her collar & then check her all over to add in any further details, color shading, shapes, shadows & highlights. You now have a witch, you just need to sculpt her broom!

The light handling of a striper brush can create a very stylish nail design. Choose your palette of colors, using a very light pink as the base, then a few quick slicks of the striper brush brings this design to life quickly.

Create mystery and a little drama on the nails using this easy, yet effective technique. Start by layering gel polish with a magnetic gel polish, then manipulate the polish with a magnet. Next use a tool stamping to add a design feature across it in dark polish. This design is in fact hidden and only appears as the nails move and the light catches them. It’s a great look for parties and other sophisticated celebrations.
