Hi All - keep scrolling down for different armatures and other issues addressed in the class. 

Okay, here are red-lined images of Lana's fabulous piece.  I can't wait to see her finished!

Here is a mocked up wing armature for Anna's crane woman:

Below are images for Stone, Ans and Ann:

•   Ann Henderson's sweet piece!  I love it!

•   Ans

•       Stone

•   Ann

Here are feet images for Ans.  I'm trying to show that if you break them down into shapes it's easier to sculpt them.

Here are Michelle's images redlined:

Here's an Andrew Loomis anatomy age comparison from http://fineart.sk/show.php?w=899 - this is distributed free page by page.  This is an invaluable resource!

•       Ann's piece and base in progress! :)

•     Ann's sketch

•   For Mary Ellen - looks great!

• Here is another for Jonette, with tail and wing wires added.

•    This is for Jonette, with how I would make an armature for her Phoenix woman.  :)  Look at the wonderful toes on this piece - remember to go ahead and extend the foot wire to give some strong talon/toes there.

•   - Here is a simple alternative wire armature if you wish to use it.  I used different colors for wires, to show how you can add wings - of course you'll have to wrap wire around the wing armatures around the torso.

•    - Here is my take on what PatL's armature would look like.

•   - Here is how I might make a freestanding piece. 

•         - Here is a simple base stabilizing method - very cheap and easy.  I used one of my injured pieces that I haven't repaired in a year or so as the piece or armature being held.  It's simply a dowel stuck into florist foam, or it can be put into the other foam, or a hole can be drilled into a piece of wood and glued in there. 

  So there you have it.  I didn't even anchor the wire with Aves, but wrapped it around the dowel and then wrapped corsage tape around it.   This is a super easy way to make a stand to hold your armature while you work with it.  You may, however, have to weight the base down somewhat.  Using masking tape, you can tape the foam onto a piece of wood or metal to weigh it down.
