For a more comprehensive miniatures project, I wanted to include some dollar store skeletons. I thought I’d just cut them apart at their joints and glue them into position, but then I saw this video from Bentley House Minis on making them poseable. WOO! Er, BOO?
Basically you cut them at their joints, drill holes on all the joint pieces, wire them together, then repaint them as you like. The pic above shows the wires running down the back of the bones, but painted, etc. so pretty subtle. The video is pretty short, so if you’re interested in doing this go have a look!
What fun! And, I’m sure you’ll use them in a creative vignette in the future, which I can’t wait to see.
I think I have some of those hanging around, so I might have to give this a try. Thanks for the mini-tutorial and the link to the video (she makes amazing stuff!).
