How to Make a Wire Person Armature: An In-Depth Tutorial by Sarafina Fiber Art

[@Old52Guy]

This was outstanding and inspirational! I have tried making wire figures before but the proportions were never right. This will help. Thanks!

[@bonnieloujohnson]

Sara shares her insights as a wonderful artist and teacher. Having never had an art class, I appreciate learning foundational and basic art concepts from her. AND she is just plain fun...as is Milo!

Where can I find the other episodes. Please please! I have been looking all morning. I saw them yesterday.

[@carolanneconnolly-brown5375]

fantastic, I have watched many tutorials on this but this is by far the clearest one yet. I do not do needle felting I work with polymer clay but this is transferable. Thank you for the fantastic tutorial.

[@missioncreekfarm7715]

Very Helpful!! The head trick is awesome. Always have to felt like crazy trying to get the right shape, but this makes such a better foundation to start with. Thank you for sharing your method!

[@laraanablum1040]

You are so great! Your explanations, your sense of humor the way videos are done... Wonderful!! congratulations!

[@jeanettewestover]

you are an amazing teacher , and artist sara renzulli

Hi Sara! Great video in every regard! This armature is so simple, wish I could use it for life-size figures! I like how you modified the head structure, too. I can see how much better it would be to fill out the head. By the way, I finished my Meri doll. She's not perfect, but she really did come out quite good! Got some photos, just need to get a CD to load them up. Send them soon.

[@John-dh5ti]

Hi, would it be possible to use this video for my freshmen art class? I'll be working with them to make wire and clay figures and this armature tutorial would be perfect.

[@happycloud6997]

[@danieltronbelli1328]

What size of wire do you use.

[@muthonikimani8229]

Thanks for the tutorial! one has to sometimes wonder where the thumbs down and horrible comments trolls come from...

[@ralucadobreart]

Fantastic tutorial! Sara, could I use a 18 gauge copper wire to make a armature for a person around 8" long?

Hi! :) I wondered what sort of felt is best to use? x

[@JCmercy4me]

Hi, what guage of wire are you using?

[@FlowLikeWater316]

do you have a armature map of this to print out by any chance?

[@catherinesutthoff1889]

Hi Sara - Thanks for the wonderful tutorials. I'm making child dolls, let's say six to eight years old. What would ratio of proportions be for this age? Thanks.

[@mlnfish]

[@mlo51987]

[@juliejelaco-villar5810]

Hello can you make small dolls like only 6 inches . Not the head just the body. I already purchased all my products for felting from your company .

[@Feeoryne]

Wire gauge? Please!

[@Feeoryne]

***** Thanks Sara!! Maybe you did mention it and I've missed it!!!

[@trinahussey2865]

Thank you!!!

[@gabby2549]

Do you ever do miniatures?

[@Feeoryne]

You must have very strong fingers... I cannot twist the 16 gage wire with my fingers!!! Maybe because mine is galvanized?

[@Feeoryne]

***** Thanks!!!

[@artistmarwat2139]

sara thats really amazing m also a sculptor student i loved your work btw..

[@박차분]

thank you😍

[@arcaderockstar7536]

This is a lot like drawing the skeleton when drawing people!

[@silverscreenreviews8521]

Can you please show us how to make a larger armature please??? 1/8 is good but maybe show us a 1/6??? I’m so bad at maths an heavily rely on your videos

[@sandrajohnson2489]

This is harder than it looks! I'm on my second armature because I didn't make the head shape correctly the first time. Advise to everyone: don't skip steps!!!

[@sandraligiadeoliveira2426]

Que pena não entendo a sua língua,acabo por poder toda a explicação!

[@Feeoryne]

Yes, must be aluminum, NOT galvanized! Very hard to find at the hardware store. I had to order it on line, Blick!

[@MariaMartinez-nx6vc]

I know how to do this it’s so esay
