I don't love them but they're done. I suppose sometimes that's all you can ask for.
The bottom line is, I just don't like this colorway. The green and the blue are too light so there's too much contrast. I'm happy with the pattern. They're very comfortable, not a pain in the neck to put on and they'll keep my feet warm while I paint my toes. In retrospect, a more neutral color would've been a better choice but I don't have a lot of neutral colored sock yarn and the point was to use up what I had.
For the open toe, I did six rows of ribbing around the entire foot, then cast off all but 24 stitches, cast on 8 more and then did six more rows of ribbing on these 32 stitches for the big toe.
It looks a little funky when the socks are off but I can live with that.

I think they are FUN! Especially with your blue toenails!
