Day 141) Nail art circuit board

I've got my late Mother's Day gift; a too expensive new laptop.
After a day of many frustrations I finally have all my software installed, files copied and pictures imported.
Only positive thing: I didn't even have to think about today's theme. My nail art had to be something with computers I thought.
I did some Googling and found an image of a circuit board:


This had to be my inspiration.

Step-by-step:

Step 1) After the basecoat apply a dark green colour

>Catrice Ultimate Nail Lacquer Limited Edition Neo Geisha - C05 Planet Tokyo

Step 2) Use a striper brush and a light green colour to paint the circuit lines
(I didn't have a light green only a neon green, so I chose to the lines in white first and then paint them neon green)


Step 3) Use studs and beads for the components and soldering work. I used my topcoat for glue


Not your average nail art.
But I'm glad my husband and son appreciate this one LOL
Would you put this on your nails?
