Our HA2 13" wire head armature is constructed of non-staining, non-corrosive aluminum wire making it the perfect support structure for sculpting your 1/2-life size head. The armature includes the head and a portion of the neck. Its base is made of melamine providing a sturdy platform.
If using moist (ceramic/pottery) clay, please note, the armature cannot be put in a kiln during firing. The clay will shrink but the wire will not, resulting in cracking and/or breakage. We suggest using a wet and twisted newspaper armature as the paper will burn off during firing; or a wax armature as the wax will melt during firing.
