Hi. Sorry, I’m somewhat confused as to the measuring of the spine when adding the loop. Half a unit down, two units for the rib cage, and another two units to complete lumbar section (4.5 units all together). Isn’t that kinda long? The straight line version is 3.5 units long. Or am I misunderstanding the instructions? Thanks.

The tips in this video are inspiring and I just ran with it haha thanks for all the helpful information I’m having a blast adding modifications to the armatures, I hope we get the chance to see more in-depth armatures for some of the weapons and props. I made a few armatures today with wings and capes, hope everyone likes and has as much fun with this assignment as I did!

Hi everyone, I’ve always been confused how the sculptor gets rid of the stand from the body once the work is finished? Or it would be cast directly somehow?
Andrew Joseph Keith
Yes the stand or support coming out of the sculpture is usually kept in place throughout the sculpting and molding process and then once the mold is made it can be filled in with silicone on the mold so that it is removed from the final cast.
