Canada Day/First Day of the Somme

Getting ready for Canada Day with some Canadian nails. On the left hand "Eh?" which I do say quite a lot, and two maple leafs on the flanks. On the right hand our national animal, the beaver, on every nail. The one on the middle finger looks a bit angry, unintentionally, and the one on the index a bit quizzical. The pictures in the background are proposed flags for Canada before the adoption of the current.

And since Canada Day also falls on Newfoundland's Memorial Day, forget-me-nots atop part of a Union Jack on the thumbs to commemorate the first day in the battle of the Somme during the Great War. 

Sailor Moon

 As per the last suggestion given to me, a throwback to my childhood (even though I intend to re-watch the series), Sailor Moon nails. 

On the right hand the inner scouts. Sailor Moon on the thumb; Mercury, Venus, Mars, and Jupiter on the fingers. I think Mercury turned out the best. On the left hand the outer scouts and Tuxedo Mask; Sailors Saturn, Neptune, Uranus, and Pluto. As per usual they did not turn out quite as nicely as my right hand. 

 Finally, because it seemed a shame to forget the cats, I have Luna and Artemis peeking out over my toes.

Bees and Ladybugs

 I was quite lazy when I did these so they're nothing very impressive. Just ladybugs and bumblebees on the right hand and stripes in matching colours on the left. My roommate made a good suggestion for nails, which are being worked on now, but it was late and I was tired so simple summer insects and stripes it was.
