In the process of patching the arms on the model in this dynamic pose of a female Gaffer working at the bench. The weight of the piece is focused between her tail bone and sternum. A lot of twisting, turning, pasting, cutting off and re-pasting of the wax is necessary to achieve something that looks in motion and believable. After the pose is stable and looks like it fits the rest of the dialogue that is happening in the piece, I work on bracing and rounding out the shape of the muscles and skin. Then, once everything starts to look natural I can start to detail the areas that need it.
