World Cup Nails

Hi guys!! So I am a little bit late with these, I was supposed to post these before the World Cup started but I just never got around to it.
When it comes to football (or soccer for my American followers) I'm not as passionate as I once was many moons ago. But the World Cup it all comes back and I'm like a football hooligan again. 
I initially started these nails to show support for England but once I had completed the England Flag I thought it would be a great idea to paint lots of different flags of what I thought would the main contenders for the cup. Obviously we have since been disappointed by the shocking exists in the group stages with Spain, Portugal, England and Italy all out. 

Unfortunately I don't have any hand shots but I have individual close ups, some are much blurrier than others, these pictures where taken in the night and then I had to remove them before I prayed so I never got any good shots of them. 
So here the are...










Polishes I used:
Essie 3in1 Base
Barry M White
Barry M Blood Orange
Barry M Blue Plum
Sally Hansen Lightening
Sally Hansen Raven
OPI Jade is the New Black
Funky Fingers Tortuga
Barry M Blue Moon
Seche Vite

I also used:
Striping Tape
3x Fine Detail Nail Art Brush

I am super happy with how Spain and Portugal turned out! They aren't very detailed but they look great from far!! Haha!

As you have probably noticed there are only 8 flags and I have 10 fingers. I did do Germany aswell, but once I had watermarked it and saved it, there was an error so I couldn't upload it and I didn't have any other pictures. But I did run out of patience to do my final finger so I only managed 9 flags. #flop

I was rooting for England but as they are out I am now rooting for Holland (Netherlands)
, don't ask why, I just am. Hoping for  Holland vs Brazil final. Fingers crossed!!

Thanks for reading!!
