Character mock-up


This is my latest design for the girl, she is very lanky and modest. The 2nd images are rough versions of how I wanted the armatures to work. Below are scale drawings and the proportions for my mock-up armature, that I will use for character tests. It is 30cm tall. 
This scale mock up of my character is made from wire, balsa wood, Araldite glue and plastic. The feet have nuts in the bottom so I can use tie-downs to keep the armature steady, although it does stand on its own.. However I plan to make the real armature from K&S and use magnets, but I need to test the practicalities of this. I am happy with how this turned out, however she is a little bulky, which can easily be fixed by sanding it down.
