Wow Best ever

I had this idea while watching your video. Attach a tape measure to the top of the paper with a coin attached to the bottom of the tape measure to help it hang even. Your friend will have an easier job with your outline.

But ... what's the easiest alteration ever? Do I add height next to the neck? Do I subtract height at the shoulder point? Do I add a parallel line through the shoulder slope's midpoint? I'd think it's the first one since you don't have to make alterations to the arm hole then, but is it really?

[@petrasbodyworks2448]

Good question. Waiting to benefit from an answer.
