Braided Nail Design

Another first for me! This was only done on one nail as I was trying several different techniques on myself at once. I like this style, but I don't think my execution was the best. I see what I need to improve on and I think I'll do it much better next time!
I thought this would be very time-consuming but it wasn't. It took me about an hour including drying time. It'll take much less if I make a "thicker" braid, which I think would look much better than my thin (and uneven) braid.

I used the following:
China Glaze Strong Adhesion Base Coat
Maybelline Express Finish Go Go Green
OPI San Tan-tonio
China Glaze Sea Spray
OPI Top Coat
