I honestly don't know why but I am having some serious issues with the Needle Marble technique. It should be real simple and I see so many amazing manis made by this technique, but for some reason I just can't get it right. So I took me a free evening and decided to give this method a try. It did take me quite a while until I was fairly happy with all my nails, but I did it!
Then I applied, one nail at the time, 4 lines of polish using Orly Instant Artist stripers in (from tip of the nail and down) True Blue, Chocolate, True Blue and Blue J, and with a long needle I dragged the polish is quick lines from the tip towards my nail beds. My index nail turned out best and I had to redo at least 2 nails more then once until I was happy with the results, but I am really liking this effect and I will have to practice it some more!

Have you tried barley touching the polish? Like barley there pressure? I hope this helps. I too have had some difficulty with this style.
This looks really cool! The blue almost makes it look like a waterfall :)
I like Essence Walk Of Fame and I like the combination of colours! :-) I tried this technique 2 times, but I really don't have any clever suggestion or trick, I guess that practice makes perfect! :-)
Needle marbling... I tried it once and it was a fail-ish... so I might need to persevere like you!
Lovely! Great color combo :)
I love this!!!! The colors you picked for this are superb!
