Great video. I love how you use a CD as a palette :)

Is that DVD a copy of Attack Of The Clones?

What's that song name ?

@ceyel5 That will work if you have super tiny clay figures under two inches. But for anything more you need wire to hold things up against gravity.

Nice video. I was wondering what gauge wire do you use for your armatures. I would greatly appreciate a response.

@MalakhiMarsrowan Technically it is 14.5 gage or 1.588mm thick.

i saw this tutorial not to make stop motion sculptures but for regular figurines. ive been sculpting wedding cake toppers for 2 years now but i dont use any armature since they are just standing straight up but i want to start making more dynamic poses and need to learn to make armatures. is this tutorial also good for polymer clay? like can i bake this armature?

@TheSweetestThingCS Yes you can bake it. For polymer clay to stick to the armature just twist some thinner craft wire around all the parts. It will help the clay from slipping off.

How do you get the plasticine to stick to the wire, so that when you move it, it doesn't get mixed up? Please help!

@JamesHanksy If you melt the clay in a double boiler or a heat source, the wax will melt in it and then it will stick to the wire. If you use claytoon van aken it will work this way. But if you use newplast you need to wrap fine wire around the armature first.
