EMPIRE finger nail question...

[Sandra8675]

I am using Bento hands with a Maitreya body I have found the nails I want...  EMPIRE nails https://marketplace.secondlife.com/p/EMPIRE-Nails-DEMO/12026669

These EMPIRE nails are exactly what I want.  I would like to know from anyone... 

Can I use the nail colors on my Maitreya HUD?  I'm not seeing how to color them different nail colors?

You can search Market Place for "Maitreya Bento Nails" or similar terms to find some compatible with your current hands.

[ETA]

Maybe these in the shorter length?

They have a demo version  you can try first to see if they suit you

I searched for "Maitreya almond bento nails" and it looks more like what you are after.  Hope it helps.

I have the EMPIRE nails in stiletto. The nails have Vista, Maitreya, And Slink versions within the pack.  It looks like it has all three on the nails you're looking at too, right at the bottom of the ad it says maitreya, slink, vista. But to answer the question no, I don't think they work with just maitreya nail hud because they are omega only it seems.

No.

The colors in your Maitreya HUD will only affect the nails built into your Maitreya hands, not add-on nails from a third party. You would want to hide those nails completely to use the add-on Empire nails.

If the nails don't come with a color HUD and no additional colors are made specifically for them, look for Omega nail appliers. According to the ad, those will work, and they're pretty common. They also say there are fatpacks available at their inworld store; perhaps those will have different colors? 

ETA I own the Astralia nails posted above; the almond shape is very similar to what you posted, and I know those come with a small color HUD and that there are lots more you can buy for them. I've also seen other nail systems, but if you really love the Empire ones, demo to make sure they'll work for your hands!

Thank you everyone for the info.  I've been looking for demos and the reason I was interested in the empire brand is because they worked.  Except the color didn't work from my hud.  Im in that learning curve time.  And unfortunately not all empire nail sets I've seen have demos which makes me hesitant to buy.  But, everyones information is very helpful.  Thank you!
