WIP...First atempt at an Armature


























I decided to try my hand at a wire Armature..LOL
It did'nt take as long as I thought, nor was it as hard as I thought it might be. I like it because I can give some movement to my "people"..(Ok there's not much, I know) This Skelly is dancing ..LOL
I learned alot from this first atempt, so I'm trying it again today, but this time I will try to make the body fuller :)
Hummmm..maybe this guy needs a voluptuous dancing partner!
Stay tuned..LOL

Hi Candy,

HOW COOL is that!! I have wanted to give it a try, but I am a BIG CHICKEN!! I know, I know, nothing ventured, nothing gained...but first I have to do my homework on it.

I can't wait to see him finished! He will be AWESOME, I am sure.

Oh and if he should get a misses, even more neat!

Have FUN with your clay.
Hugs,
~Tonya
