Summer Challenge: Favorite Summer Song

Already the third challenge ?!! Time flies :) 
Today's theme: Favorite Summer Song 

Let me tell you, this was a hard one!! Phew :)) Why? Well, many reasons! At first I didn't know what my fav summer song is ... but then I realized which one it is! .....DANZA KUDURO!
Oh boy, I adore this song :D It's exactly the kinda music I like, it's the soundtrack to my favorite movie (Fast Five!!) and it's my ringtone ever since it came out =)) 
First problem solved....but then I had no idea what to paint on my nails, that could represent this song! After a little brainstorm I came up with some ideas, but then came the next problem: how the heck should I transfer that to my nails?? 
In the end I solved that problem too, I just made some sketches and everything was fine :D

Here's the song, in case you don't know it, but then again you must live under a rock, if you never heard of it =)) 


And here is what I did on my nails: 

Oh yes, it's the Yacht from the first scenes of the music video ;)
I worked really hard on this one and I reeeeeally like the outcome :D  
On my thumbs I wrote the song title: 


DANZA KUDURO! ... oi oi oi  ..sorry, I'm listening to the song right now and I'm singing along =))
Here is the sketch I talked about earlier: 


I initially wanted to do some kind of gradient on my thumbs, but I did some waves instead :P 

So tell me: what's your favorite summer song??? :)

    Since I've never tried (or thought I can do) one-image-in-multi-fingers design, your work is just so great in term of technique too... <3

  20. I am very impressed, you have so many great and interesting ideas. I meet your blog yesterday for a first time when I search for Essence Peel Off Base review. And now I can say you can publish some big fat book about nail design and it will be bestseller :-)
    Danza cuduro was for long time my most favourite song, now it is Cruising California by Offspring. Will you make some nails about this song as well? :-)
