Arms!

After many discarded castings figuring out how to get the armature to register properly in those little fingers, I have finished my first arm! Aluminum wire armature wrapped in thread, silicone arm and paints.

Phenomenal! Can we get a shot of what the bare wire looks like beforehand? :)

Thanks for the support! Tony - I took a picture of the armature and will update the post tonight. They're pretty ugly armatures! But hopefully they'll work.
