Crows Toes Huginn & Muninn

Today I have for you Crows Toes' Huginn & Muninn.  Now, I must admit I had to google what Huginn & Muninn was because I had never heard these names before.  Apparently they are apart of Norse mythology.  They're ravens that fly around the world bringing information to Odin, a Norse god of wisdom.  Huginn (pronounced HOO-gin) is Old Norse for "thought" while Muninn (pronounced MOO-gin) means "memory." (source: Wikipedia)

Huginn & Muninn is a part of Crows Toes' latest collection.  It's a gorgeous duochrome.  Who doesn't love a good duochrome?  This one has a dark blue base and it shifts from green to purple.  The duochrome in this is pretty strong, but looks best in the shade or at certain angles.  When looking at it straight on, it often looks like a purple shimmer.  Still gorgeous.

Application on this was nice.  It was pretty opaque and layering definitely isn't required.

This is 3 coats.
