Hand Painted The whole set 🎉
I finally had the time to finish the other hand 👏. I messed up on a few parts but like Bob Ross says they're not mistakes just happy accidents 😂. I'm thinking of using color changing nail polish next. Any ideas on what brand I should use ??

Your painting is beautiful but you need to size the tips better.
Some of these look too big on your fingers and it’s distracting from your painting. The middle fingers and thumbs in particular, I can see them overlapping your skin quite a bit.
Filing down the sidewalls can help you get a better fit if your nails are a bit of a unique shape. Personally I find that almond (or stiletto) tips are harder to fit unless they’re longer - the taper can start too low and you’re forced to size up to cover the top of your nail, but then it becomes too wide on the sidewalls. Square or round tips don’t have this issue because of their straighter sides so they’re easier to get a perfect fit with.
