Nfu Oh Intergalatic nails

I can't help but sing Beastie Boys 'Intergalactic' and do the robot around the house every time I wear this polish. It's so futuristic looking.
I wanted to try and convey how I feel about it with a bit of nail art.  This was the result.  I'm thinking laser beam type art.
For the base I used three coats of Nfu Oh 61.  This look was quite easy. I used stripping tape here, there, everywhere!  I just wanted to do the accent nail as this is a polish you don't want to cover up. Once the tape was on I covered the entire nail in an Urban Outfitters black.  I didn't wait to long before removing the tape.  It was a very gentle process as the tape was overlapping one another and I had to figure out which one comes off first.
I'm loving the end result.  I tried to get the right angle in the sunlight otherwise it just looks like a dull mess. 



I've been considering getting the blue holographic from Nfu Oh.  I find that if you don't have sunlight the colour is so dull and old looking. Hopefully the blue will give it a little more life
