Nude crackle and metallic blue to nude gradient

Hi lovely readers!
It is Sunday and with that of cause Lelack's Nail Art Sunday!  Today the theme was free so I ended up experimenting and I really like the result! I wore this for some days ago and I loved it and will do it again with perhaps other colors. The title says it all, which is nude crackle over metallic blue to nude gradient. I often tend to dislike crackle manicures a lot even though I were them my self. It's like if I have a cool picture of how it will look and when I make it, it looks less good. Here however, the image matched the outcome and this is the crackle manicure I like the best of the ones I've made. :)

 I really loved the result, here with out top coat leaving the crackle polish matte and the base metallic and shiny.

As you can see I've used another color of nude under as a base and then sponged the metallic blue from the cuticles. And then I painted with the nude crackle all over the nail. I love how vibrant the metallic looks with this contrast of nude, like shown in the photo below.

When I see it I think of these large ice cubes in the north pole from documentary films. You know when the ice is crystal clear and ice blue with a hint of white crackles. Ah, I guess you know what I mean. :)

So, the photo just above and the two below is with top coat. I must say I preferred the ones with out top coat so the next time I'll make this I'll keep the crackle matte as it is and the base shiny.

Polishes used:
Isadora - Latte queen (crackle)
Kleancolor - Sheer Pastel Cocoa

Kleancolor - Metallic Aqua

What do you think about this? If any do you prefer the matte or the shiny one? :)
