Is this a mushroom or a hat?

Hi Everyone!! Happy Hump Day!  I hope everyone is having a great middle of the week.  So far so good for me although I am looking forward to some "me" this this weekend.

Today I've got a mani that had a lot of potential but then holy cow what the heck happened to it??  Keeping with the Japanese theme I found this picture I wanted to recreate

Lovely isn't it??? Then why did my mani turn out like this?

Can you say mushroom head?????

The gradient is pretty lovely

but my freehand hat just fell short

Here they are all together

I wonder if anyone else had freehand issues with their Japanese style today?
