Topshop Hieroglyphic Nail Tutorial

As many of you may know, I can't resist a bit of nail art, a new collection and Topshop. So of course, I couldn't pass up some hieroglyphic nails which were created by Sophy Robson for Topshop Unique S/S 2012.
I tried to go for a sand colour rather than a gold by using the taupe colour to tone down the yellow but it didn't work, in case you're wondering where I used the Topshop polish! 
You don't have to be too neat when drawing the shapes!

I changed mine a bit from the originals because I didn't want to completely replicate them as that would be boring! My favourite is the eye design, which I might try on all ten nails, I reckon it'll look freakyyy! Will you be trying these?
