FMP – Armature Making

This morning, about Lucy’s lecture on the course magazine I went right up to Simon, the technician, with my balsa pieces to check if he could drill them. (even though he’s only available on Mondays to foundation students). Luckily he said yes and it took in literally one minute do drill all the pieces. I didn’t take my phone to document the drilling but I have the drilled pieces:

I spent the rest of the day building the puppet skeleton. I took pictures and made 2 videos of the process. I intend to make a small compilation of time lapse videos.

At the end, I gummed taped the whole armature. I managed to finish it, which was great. Now I really start to see how my figure will look like.
