How To: Hand Painted Tiger Portrait on Short Nails

[@valleriejoy]

I can barely draw a stick figure and then there’s Kirsty. You are amazing! So incredible at painting, such detailed, miniatures.

[@brey1720]

Lmao I mean I get it, but she did have years to practice and perfect her trade. But she's definitely a fantastic nail artist, one of the best I've seen from online videos. Heck she does her own nails! Now that I still don't know how the heck, I can barely do much with my left non dominant hand let alone try to put nail polish on, but especially sculpt acrylic & do highly artistic things on my own nails 😂

[@christinebrennan4484]

I do not know how you do what you do! The impeccable attention to detail and accuracy of perspective...OUTSTANDING!!! This was magnificent!!!

[@KirstyMeakin]

Thank you so much 😀

[@elliea.2519]

These are Oh so Amazing!!! Kirsty, your talent knows no bounds! Just awesome. 😮🤯😍😍😍😍💙💙💙💙💙 Thank you for sharing your creativity with us! Just beautiful! 👏🏼👏🏼💙😍

[@prettynsleepy1073]

Your talent is unmatched. I love love love watching you work your magic on nails. Plus the commentary and banter is so wonderful. Always a great time. Thank you so much for always brightening my day.

[@coloururnails4568]

Kirsty is so talented. I can't believe she doesn't have many subscribers. She deserves so much more Reconition

[@amandaterrio4823]

A true testament of how good the products are. You can have all the talent in the world but if you have crap products it’s nearly impossible

[@kierramalone4968]

The fact that you hand drew the tiger is crazy. I love the design.

[@taniasprout7102]

I think the white tiger has to be my favourite of all the nails you have done.

[@keikoisabellafujie5789]

Wow, that tiger is absolutely incredible, especially on short nails. You are simply the best 👏🏻🥰💖🐯

[@prettynsleepy1073]

Omg the artistry is top notch. You truly amaze me. We love this client. Gorgeous hyper realistic perfection. Omg. Love Tigers

[@anthonyjosephmartineznails]

Oh wow!! 😮 That is AMAZING!! 😍🐯 Thanks for breaking it down, detailed art is so much easier to understand in steps.

[@Wheelie86]

Wow in love with this ! Tigers are my favourite animal. Love that you’ve finally done one on a set. Love all your previous animal portraits previously

[@vickischulz3456]

Been awhile since I have seen you do an intricate design. Love it. Your skill is unmatched.

[@PhoebeRobinson-vv8kl]

Kristy you are fabulous!! The things u do on a finger nail is beyond reality. I get so jealous. I go to everyone I know and some I don't .to show your videos they do that sigh you know but when I leave their mouths are hanging open. Love it

[@sandrastreifel6452]

That’s some impressive miniature painting! Makes me appreciate my house tiger!

[@jwiki1]

Back when I was a kid they used to have characters and the boxes like you did in a magazine called Highlights and I would draw them all the time! I’d forgotten about it until I saw this. Amazing work Kirsty! I love this set!! ❤

[@jennthelen4721]

I'd be so thrilled if I could get my nails done by you one day! The Tiger is absolutely amazing and realistic 💖

[@cutley427]

Just trying to grow my nails out (again) I’m a 62 year old lifetime nail biter. I’m just doing gel polish. Anyway, enough about me….. I just realized all the products you use are your own!!!! Yeah it’s been a minute since I watched your videos. The products look amazing. Can’t wait to check out those specialty brushes!!!

[@babyblue806]

OH MY GOSH!!!! Kirsty please come do that exact set on my nails!!! Oh my gosh how I wish!!! Absolutely amazing as always!!

[@nailsbybramble]

I love snow tigers or and snow cat they are gorgeous. The nails are gorgeous. I want to give it go someday you make look so easy. Love how you broke it down. Thank you for sharing. 💙💙💙🤗🐅

[@FrancesDanelle]

I love white tigers! This is so beautiful Kirsty, you are amazing!!!

[@annamosqueda3313]

I can barely draw a stick figure in 4 hours 😅😂 I have told you so many times, “these are my favorite set” 😅 I know these are definitely MY FAVORITE 🎉❤ absolutely incredible artwork 🎉 It’s so inspiring and incredible what you can do on such a small canvas 😮 The snow leopard is one of my absolute favorite wild comments ❤ When you said it would not come out perfectly the same…girl…you made it look even better with all the shading, dimension and the colors you used ❤ Not to mention you hand drew yours. The image you used was made with a layer printer. Outstanding job Kirsty 🎉 And yes, I was literally giving Carry a round of applause just like you did 😅😂 She is one lucky gal to be wearing the most fabulous nails in your part of the UK 😊 When Adam asked the fill in the blank with his question, “I’m going to the netty.” My sentence went like this, “I’m going to the MALL” 😅😂 WAY OFF 😅😂 the word “netty” in my mind the word sounded much fancier 😂 I really enjoy all of Adam’s tidbits of information. I’m literally a tidbit/fun fact junky and appreciate learning about different cultures ❤ I think the lions, tigers, leopards, panthers, bob cats even the domesticated cat are the most regal and majestic of animals. I follow a group on TikTok named, “living with wildlife”. They are from South Africa and rescue all sorts of wild life. The lions she has were rescued from poachers and people that were trying to capture them illegally. She has 3 adult males that are stunning and because of the care they provide they are now healthy. Happy New Year’s to you guys ❤ May 2024 bring you good health, new fun filled memories and prosperity 😊❤

[@anthonyjosephmartineznails]

Adam, you make a great point, it looks so big on screen but you really have to respect the scaled down replica!! 🤯👏🏽👏🏽

[@ibenduus9676]

Beautyful… just beautyful 😍 Kirsty, you are a magician 👍🏼

[@lorrieholsten2521]

❤this is one of my favorite designs you've done, I mean they're always lovely and on point. Cats are my favorite animal and this one is stunning. I would expect nothing less!!. Simply amazing.❤

[@crystalstarr3200]

ABSOLUTELY MAGICAL!!! Kirsty, you are AMAZING!!!

[@babyblue806]

White tiger is my absolute favorite animal, when you said there's not much more I think I could do you were right I'm no where near experienced and I mean no where near, but if you had some small blue bling for the eyes would've been cool looking I think but love the way the are!! You always amaze me!! I check KZbin everyday to see if you have uploaded a video love watching the thoughts in your mind come visual!! 👍👍 Thumbs up for both of y'all!!

[@AnneMäkelä-e8h]

[@zavesangel]

[@bethwilliams7769]

I love love love these & not just because my favourite colour is blue but the artistry you have is so blinking amazing it's un believable. Your have an amazing talent so beautifully sparkling ✨️ xx

[@christivbosch565]

OMG! That design is absolutely stunning! I'm a cat lover and this set needs to be on my nails 💅 I wish i had a smidge of the talent Kirsty has, but i don't. My drawing/painting skill is about the level of a 8 year old...lol I've tried many times, but it never turns out good. If i lived close, I'd be a regular client of the amazing Kirsty Meakin. Since I'm all the way on the other side of the planet, i guess my best choice is nail decals...lol Happy New Year to Kirsty, Adam and all the beautiful ladies getting their nails done on this channel. As always, sending positive vibes and blessings from Northern Indiana USA 💀 🌹
