Red Angel 121 Image Plate




Last plate for this set, it's nice but not one of my top favorites.
One image, the one below the butterfly in the middle looks similar to the one in RA119 but not the same okay.
I'm just happy that all the images here work specially those that have thin lines.

Red Angel 120 Image Plate




These are almost full nail designs, though they don't cover the whole of the nail it will cover most of it.
Unique designs again which is awesome, nobody wants repeats from other sets right?
I have only love for this plate ^_^

Red Angel 119 Image Plate





Such a majestic looking crown, it's big though it might only fit my thumb.
I like the snowflake/flower design, it's big as well but it's different from other ones that I do own. ^_^
Butterfly is cute too it looks like a tattoo really.
Yeah, two thumbs up for this plate.

Floral and leaves... love it!
The designs here are nice and unique. Cool looking rose and the leaves are cute too ^_^

Red Angel 118 Image Plate



This one although it looked like it swatched well has a shallow engraving too.
It was difficult to show the fine lines that connects the lily pad when I tried to swatch it, I could only make it show up when I used a stamping polish.
The rest were okay as long as you scrape lightly.
Love the designs on this one as well but my problem is that I'm not artistic enough to think of a good color or image combo :/

Emoticons plate ^_^
As you can see these are not your usual smiley faces though they are quite different I'm not much of a fan because I might not be able to stand it long enough on my nails. It's a fun plate to have though, maybe younger nail art enthusiasts would have more fun with this one.

This is a lovely nature plate, I guess maybe except the wings but the leaves, trees and vines look so pretty.
This could be an easy favorite ^_^

Red Angel 114 Image Plate




Nice plate really, sorry for the bad swatch must have mixed too much water on my paint.
Love all the images here, I don't usually like circles or dots but this one looks like disco!
I'm not sure if the scratch near the hearts is deep or not but it didn't show up on the swatch and it's barely touching the design so I'm not going to mind about that.
Heart soup... cute!

Red Angel 113 Image Plate




Another wingless fairy but that's okay I still think she looks cute ^_^
For me this is plate is just okay, I think they grabbed the designs here from other nail stamping sets. If this is your first and only set you would be able to appreciate it I guess.
If you'll look closely my plate has a bad and deep straight scratch above the camou or cow print design, it's very apparent on my swatch... tsk tsk tsk :(
I'm hoping that this will not affect the image when I do use it since it's near the corner.

Red Angel 112 Image Plate




So I guess this fairy has her wings ^_^
I like this plate but why does the full nail floral had to be the one that's narrow?
Oh well at least they stamp great :)

Red Angel 111 Image Plate




This is one of the revamped plates I think, I've read from the people who got the first batch of this set that the girl in the middle supposed to have wings and that it's supposed to be a fairy.
I don't mind it though but the full nail designs on this plate are not very impressive as the others. Those scales design I think I have three plates that looks exactly the same. The important thing is that they all work. YAY!

Red Angel 110 Image Plate




Okay this is the first set that I have encountered that has this kind of half-full nail/french tip designs. I may have seen this from XL plates but not really in small plates.
I have a bit of mixed feelings about this, though I don't have any kind of these designs on my stash but I'm not sure it would be a favorite. The swirls look cool though ^_^

Red Angel 109 Image Plate





Remember RA104, the one that only has four full nail designs? I guess this is where the other small design went. ^_^

This is the first the plate that I tried from this set, I had a bit of difficulty picking up the image because I was expecting it to be engraved like my other plates but it was a bit shallow but not to the point that they are unusable. You just need to scrape lightly and you would have a better outcome if you use a stamping polish not just regular ones.
I like all the designs but the circles not so much.

Red Angel 108 Image Plate




Love the tribal print on this plate even though it's a little shorter than the other designs, I'm currently using this design on my nails as I'm typing this ^_^
The retro squares are so common but I like this one, will have to keep a mental note to use this. The couple other full designs are okay too
The flowers on the side look like jasmines to me.

Red Angel 107 Image Plate




Pretty cool plate if you love to do water marbling ^_^
Fishbone design looks cool too
Almost perfect, they really need to tell their plate designer or arranger to line those images up perfectly. I know it's really not a big deal since all the images work but if you're used to having plates that are lined up well this could be an eyesore.

Red Angel 106 Image Plate



This plate swatched pretty well ^_^
I was able to try the waves design on my mom's nails, I needed to scrape lightly because every time I scrape too heavily the image outcome isn't opaque enough.
The designs on this plate are nice, will try to use that full nail with the heart design soon. The flowers looks a bit familiar, maybe a copy from a Konad image plate?

Red Angel 105 Image Plate




I just noticed that some of the full nail designs on this set are smaller than the others, take a closer look on the grass with orb like patterns it's obviously smaller than the tribal design beside it.
I don't want to fuss over it too much because I don't let my nails grow too long anyway.
Again love the unique designs but I would have preferred that the tribal print was the other way around, I mean they should have switched the etching on it the etched part should be the smooth part and vice versa. Oh well...

Red Angel 104 Image Plate




I'm not sure if it's a fluke or a mistake when they were arranging the designs on their plates but this only has four full nail images. I think there's a plate on this set that has that small design that was supposed to be included here ^_^
I have to give it to the designers on this set but these are really quite unique, fun part is you can use those leaves without those lines and the slanted tribal print without the grape-like design which I find it to be a bit a weird combo anyway.
The swatches turned out well so I'm happy about that.

Red Angel 103 Image Plate



Cool looking plate this one, I like the square tile design ^_^
The balloon with hearts is cute as well, looking forward to using that.
The engraving is pretty good, had no problems except for maybe the string of the balloons not properly showing up. I hope it will be better when I do use it on my nails.

Red Angel 102 Image Plate




RA102 has four full nail designs and a cute peacock ^_^
Unfortunately this is one of the plates that has a shallow engraving. If you'll see my swatch the butterflies aren't engraved well this is really saying something because I used acrylic paint to swatch these. I tried to swatch it with different polishes and really had a difficult time to making all the butterflies show up. The other designs work but will need a bit of effort and you need to pick up and stamp real quick, because of the shallowness of the engraving you'll be scraping a lot of polish and what's left is a thin layer of product to stamp with which could dry up a lot faster than usual.
