Thank you for sharing this video. I am going to make an armature but not for clay. I will use wool felt. Happy holidays!!

[@woodzeppelin3241]

Thanks for this. I am using toothpicks not clay for our animations. (see my channel) The steel wire kept breaking on the hands. I hear aluminum is much better. I worked with chicken wire too. That seems to bend well too.

[@AndrewJosephKeith]

Cool! Yeah aluminum usually is bendable longer than other metals.

[@hetsurimihondje3610]

i don't understand... shouldn't an armature , at the end, be rooted in(to) something... so that the figure is straightup and you can start putting clay on it while it stays straight ?
I've never done this : )

[@AndrewJosephKeith]

Yes you can use a length of wire to wrap up the spine and hang the sculpture from above or you can use a section of bent metal rod to attach to the sculpture in the hips or lower torso area.

Here's a video that shows some of the options and how I like to do it.
