Creating an Armature using a Polyshape (deco foam)
Armatures are like a skeleton. They are used to create structure before a more refined surface is applied e.g. Magiclay or Modroc.
Step One: Attach Poly shapes together using a Toothpick. Use Supertac on both ends to secure.
Step Two: Use a Satay Stick to poke holes in the Poly shape. Insert wire into the holes and secure with masking tape.
Step Three: Cover the armature with a thin layer of Magiclay and add detail.
Extension: You can also make armatures from Poly Shapes and Cardboard. Secure the shapes together using Masking Tape. Once complete model over.
