Making a 12" Figure Armature (the 3 minute armature)

The 3 minute armature, using a piece of A4 paper, 6ft (180cm) of thin aluminium armature wire you can make a simple scaled figure armature to 1/6th scale (12").
3.17mm Square Aluminium wire is used in this example, thinner gauges of steel galvanised or soft copper wires can be used.
With such a close link between the golden section and body proportions it is possible to scale armatures up or down using standard paper stock sizes like A3, A2, A1 etc. and using different gauges of wire accordingly.

Wow .. you are ao creative thanks for helping ❤❤

[@sandrajohnson2489]

You have obviously done this a time or two. Lol. I followed along with your video and made an armature figure. However, it wasn't easy and I had to tie a few areas with wire because they kept sliding around. Thank you though for making this video and posting it here. I searched for a long time before I found a tutorial like this. No one has yet folded paper this way to show the correct measurements and THIS is very important. Thank you!!!!! :)))

[@raspberrycrusader]

Fabulous, just the video I needed for polymer clay work! Thank you 😊

[@spyralspyder]

Now do I wanna spend more time in the interim fixing and save money.... just build great heads and hands or just get good armatures and be short that head/hand making money.... Nothing is really that much of a rush.... It is a balance. This video might spur me to get more heavy gauge wire now that I think of it.

[@mariaelenagomez9466]

Buenísimo y facilícimo. Perfecto

[@arttutorial6988]

It's really good

[@surferdude1740]

Awesome and informative video I seen alot of how to make an armature but yours is one of the best I really like that it is constructed out of a single piece of wire cool. Thanks for sharing the knowledge ✌️

[@mimiqhtani2602]

👏👏👋👍👍👍

[@LeviathanKoda]

if i where to create a smaller armature, should i use a smaller gauge?

[@MeoMeoPaperchannel]

What kind of a wire is it

[@usernamemykel]

Bendy kind.

[@mohanjodarocarving1129]

Thank u so much...🙏

[@usernamemykel]

Brilliant and simple - nice combination. Next time use a darker writing implement, such as a "Sharpie", so we can clearly see the lines.

[@carlospatriciopatricio5630]

Muito lindo, foi perfec

[@rebornlifeandlittlegizmo8991]

Could I use the wire to make an armature for a standing reborn doll?

[@Ibaneddie76]

This is actually a really great small scale armature!

[@joe-anndilag4325]

This is very good and simple it's creativity he had he is very good on this thank you for your video i make my skeleton!!

What's the name of the material?

[@dsprimariacerotres-io5pm]

😮

[@brysillustration2727]

I would have found this more helpful if there were written verbal instructions to go with the visuals. I also found it difficult to see the paper template at first. I've found the template really helpful, but find that after the first few sculpting steps, I get confused, especially when it's obscured by your hands. I'll keep trying, this video was helpful. :)

[@sagarajiz9528]

Wire name

[@mandyvincent2431]

Finding it hard to see the pencil template, would be better in felt or have a template attached. Apart from that its great, the tutorial is really useful for molding human form xXx

[@deemulrooney9597]

Good video, but its frustrating when people don't talk for their instruction videos.

[@priyankasethiya8239]

Which wire u used.???

There was a huge shine on the paper when you were making the sketch. Otherwise this was very helpful.

Is it just me? I can’t see what was drawn on the paper 🤓

[@yep6431]

She drew a very very simplified skull figure using the scale she made by folding the paper, she then recreated the same figure with the wires !

[@usernamemykel]

You're correct - should have used a Sharpie.

[@briavw7937]

looked this up cuz im making a coraline doll of myself...
