Inside the Total Creature Claws Masterclass
A guided system for creating cinematic creature claws — whether you're starting or refining your skills.
The Core Training
This is where everything begins — clearly and without overwhelm.
You’ll build a strong foundation in tools, setup, structure, and technique before ever sculpting or painting.
From there, blank nails transform into cinematic creature claws through painting, texture, and detailing techniques that bring depth and realism to your work.
New creature claw designs are added regularly, keeping your skills sharp long after you complete the foundation.
Tools, Materials & 3D Skills
No more guessing what you need — or wasting money on what you don’t.
You’ll receive the Complete Costume Nail Supply Guide so you know exactly what to buy, what to skip, and how to build your kit with clarity and confidence.
This module also opens the door to 3D creature claws.
No 3D printer required.
You’ll learn how 3D elements work behind the scenes, how to use ready-to-print files, and how to choose the right path for you.
By the end, you’ll feel prepared, capable, and ready to create — not overwhelmed.
Professional Presentation & Sales
Creating powerful claws is one skill. Presenting and selling them professionally is another.
Inside this module, you’ll learn how to present your work, price it with confidence, and structure your Etsy launch.
Plus receive personal 1:1 feedback from me on your shop, so you’re refining with expert guidance, not guessing.
Ongoing Growth & Personal Guidance
This isn’t a one-time course — it’s structured, ongoing support.
You’ll have 24/7 access to a private community of creature nail artists where you can ask questions, share your work, and receive feedback as you grow. This is where confidence builds — and ideas evolve.
Includes a private 30-minute 1:1 Zoom session with me.
We’ll refine your designs, troubleshoot obstacles, and clarify your next steps.
Personalized access like this is rare — and one of the reasons enrollment is limited.
Meet Your Instructor
I’m Jolandi du Preez, founder of Onyx Nails Design and creator of The Total Creature Claws Masterclass.
Over the years, my work has been featured in film productions, music videos, drag performances, cosplay conventions, and high-profile shoots — designed not as accessories, but as true character assets.
When I began developing advanced creature claws, there was no roadmap.
No clear structure.
No proven method.
So I built one.
Through years of refinement, experimentation, and obsessive attention to detail, I developed a methodology for creating claws that hold under lights, under pressure, and under scrutiny.
Today, I teach that structured system inside this Masterclass — along with personalized feedback, ongoing design releases, and a focused one-on-one session so you’re not guessing your way through it alone.

The Curriculum
Module 1: Welcome & Join the Creature Claw Inner Circle
Step inside a private creative space designed exclusively for creature claw artists. From day one, you’ll have 24/7 access to the community, where you can ask questions, share your work, get feedback, and draw inspiration from other creatives around the world. This is where ideas spark, confidence grows, and you realize you’re not creating alone.
Module 2: The Structural Foundations of Creature Claws
This module sets the foundation for everything you’ll create inside the masterclass — without limiting your creativity or locking you into rules.
You’ll learn how to choose the right products, tools, and setup for creature and costume nails, understand what actually matters (and what doesn’t), and build confidence in your process before you ever start sculpting or painting.
You’ll also get access to the Complete Costume Nail Supply Guide, so you know exactly what to buy, what to skip, and how to build your kit without wasting time or money.
By the end of this module, you’ll feel grounded, prepared, and ready to create — not overwhelmed
Module 3: 3D Printing Roadmap: From Idea to Physical Claws
This module opens the door to 3D creature claws — no 3D printer required.
You’ll learn how 3D creature nails work behind the scenes, how to use ready-to-print files with confidence, and how to choose the right path for you. That might mean printing at home, using a professional 3D printing service, or simply understanding your options so you can participate fully without owning a printer at all.
This isn’t about tech jargon or complicated setups. It’s about unlocking new shapes, structures, and possibilities that simply aren’t achievable by hand alone — and making them accessible, even if you’ve never touched a 3D printer before.
By the end of this module, 3D printing won’t feel intimidating — it will feel like just another creative tool in your kit.
Module 4: Painting, Texture & Cinematic Detailing
This is where blank nails transform into fully realized creature claws.
You’ll dive into painting, detailing, textures, finishes, and creative techniques that bring depth, realism, and personality to your designs—turning concepts into claws that feel cinematic, stage-ready, and unforgettable.
This module doesn’t stand still.
New creature claw designs are added every month, giving you fresh inspiration, new techniques to study, and evolving builds you can recreate, customize, or use to expand your own portfolio—long after you’ve completed the core training.
This is a living design library designed to keep your creativity sharp, inspired, and ahead of the curve
Module 5: Professional Presentation
In this module, you’ll learn how to package your creature claws so they feel as powerful and intentional as the designs themselves.
You’ll see how to present your nails in a way that feels professional, polished, and unforgettable—whether they’re headed to a photoshoot, backstage at a production, a client, or being opened for the first time by someone who’s never seen work like yours before.
This lesson shows you how to protect your nails properly, elevate their presentation, and make sure your work looks ready for the spotlight the moment it’s unboxed.
Module 6: Flawless Application for Creature Claws
Learn how to apply creature claws so they look seamless, feel secure, and stay exactly where they should. In this module, you’ll master adhesive tab application for press-on nails — perfect for photoshoots, costume wear, stage, and short-term events.
You’ll learn how to prep the natural nail properly, choose the right tab size, and apply each claw for a comfortable, professional finish that holds up while still being easy to remove when needed.
This ensures your claws don’t just look incredible — they wear beautifully.
Module 7: BONUS - Etsy Launch Blueprint – Turning Claws into Income
This bonus module shows you how to turn your creature claw designs into a real, sellable product — not just art that sits in a folder.
You’ll be guided step by step through setting up your Etsy shop, pricing your work confidently, and presenting your claws in a way that feels professional, intentional, and worth paying for. You’ll also receive direct 1:1 feedback from me on your shop, so you’re not guessing — you’re refining with expert eyes.
This isn’t about quick wins or shortcuts. It’s about giving your work a place in the world where it can actually earn.
Module 8: One-on-One Creative Guidance Session
This is where your work gets personal.
You’ll receive a private 30-minute one-on-one Zoom session with me, dedicated entirely to your creative journey. Bring your designs, questions, ideas, or challenges, and we’ll refine them together.
This session is designed to help you:
Get direct, honest feedback on your creature claws
Troubleshoot anything that’s holding you back
Refine your style, execution, or direction
Leave with clarity, confidence, and next steps
It’s personalized guidance you won’t find anywhere else — and one of the reasons this masterclass is intentionally limited.

If you’re new, you’ll be guided step by step through tools, setup, structure, and technique so you can build confidence without feeling overwhelmed.
If you already have experience, you’ll dive into advanced textures, finishes, 3D integration, and design concepts that go far beyond traditional nail art.
You start where you are — and grow into stronger, more complex work with a proven system.
How long do I have access to the program & when does it start?
You receive lifetime access to the entire masterclass, including all future updates and new creature claw designs as they are added.
Access begins immediately after enrollment, so you can start learning and building at your own pace.
There are no deadlines, no pressure — just structured progression you can return to anytime.
Can't I learn all of this on Youtube?
You can find scattered tips on YouTube.
What you won’t find is a complete, structured system.
This masterclass was built to eliminate guesswork. Every module follows a clear progression — from foundation to advanced execution — so you’re not piecing information together from dozens of unrelated videos.
Inside, you receive step-by-step training specifically for creature and costume claws, new designs added regularly, access to a focused community, and direct review opportunities — something free content simply cannot provide.
This isn’t about more information.
It’s about clarity, structure, and momentum.
Is this self-paced or live?
This is a structured, self-paced masterclass.
You can move through the modules on your own schedule, revisit lessons as often as needed, and build at a pace that fits your life.
New creature claw designs are added regularly, and you’ll also receive access to the community and your dedicated one-on-one review session — so while the core training is self-paced, you’re not building alone.
This gives you the flexibility of independent learning with the support of guided refinement when you need it.
Do I need lots of supplies?
No. You don’t need to buy everything upfront.
Inside the course, you’ll receive the Complete Costume Nail Supply Guide so you know exactly what to buy, what to skip, and what’s truly worth investing in.
Most students discover they already own many of the essentials.
The goal isn’t to overwhelm you with tools — it’s to help you build skill first and upgrade intentionally.
Do I need a 3D printer?
No — a 3D printer is not required.
Inside the masterclass, you’ll learn how 3D creature claws work, how to use ready-to-print files, and how to choose the right path for you.
That may mean printing at home, using a professional 3D printing service, or simply understanding the process so you can confidently incorporate 3D elements into your designs.
This module is designed to expand your creative possibilities — not overwhelm you with technical complexity.
By the end, 3D won’t feel intimidating. It will feel like another tool in your creative arsenal.
Why is enrollment limited?
Enrollment is intentionally limited to maintain the quality of the experience.
Each student receives one dedicated 30-minute one-on-one creative review session with me.
Limiting enrollment ensures I can give every artist the focused time and thoughtful feedback their work deserves.
Keeping the cohort small also protects the integrity of the community — ensuring it remains engaged, serious, and supportive rather than overcrowded or impersonal.
This isn’t a mass-market course.
It’s structured training with intentional refinement built in.
