A Roundel the World


Day 39

Today's nails are painted with roundels, which are national insignia used on military aircraft. This was a suggestion by my friend Patrick, who is a pilot in the US Air Force. :) I also thought it'd be a rad idea because my grandfather was an aircraft navigator in World War II. On my left hand I did the countries of my heritage, and my right hand, I did some of the more interesting shapes, and colors. :)
