think witchdocter, I do the same thing every year and improve on it each time. but I never focused to much on my hands for it so I was thinking of using 2 to 3 inch nails. I want them to look rotten, bloody, cracked, burnt, or just plain revolting. beyond tapping them with a hammer to crack them a little, I have no idea of what to do.
thank you for any advice that you have

Apply a yellowy-tinted clear polish and before applying the nails, scratch them up a bit. Maybe file down bits here and there to make them uneven and messy, and dab some blood red polish carelessly over them, with a sort of stabbing motion with the brush. You could try to crack the ends by flattening them with a hammer or something, but with cheap nails they might split all the way down, so don't hit them too hard. I think it's possible to buy fake nails from costume stores that already look decrepit, gross and evil, so you could check that out as well.

i'm getting my nails finished on a regularly occurring foundation. I continually bypass with the classic French tip, because of the fact i do no longer basically like the pink undertone of the different. The white tip is often greater classic and looks to look neater for an prolonged quantity of time. even in spite of the incontrovertible fact that, i might around out the perimeters of the nails slightly and choose for a shorter length. especially circumstances, while they record my nails, they bypass away such pointy aspects on the sq. tips. So, I ask them to record them down slightly. sufficient that I unquestionably have the sq. look, yet additionally sufficient that i do no longer bypass reducing human beings or issues with the pointy edge of my nail. in case you're uncertain of what you pick. i might merely bypass to the nail salon and attempt explaining the look you're going for. greater suitable than in all probability, they are going to be waiting to artwork with you find a compromise. besides the shown fact that, i might pick a nail that shorter. i've got been donning pretend nails for 2 years and that i continually bypass shorter for the nails. I hate those long claws human beings have, it is so cheesy. short is effective, because of the fact it aspects a greater organic look, yet you nevertheless have the ability of the pretend nail.

i would get an eyeliner and some eyeshadow and put it on the edges and in strategic places (get creative) then seal it with a clear coat of finger nail polish. i did this last ear to make something look rotten, but i used glue to seal it and the makeup did great to give a rotten and dirty look. good luck!

Get some fake blood and rub it on hands and fingers. Before that, find a good awful shade of yellow so they look rotten.

A little bit of toe nail is fine... but I agree along with you. Long nails are kinda gross.
