I like to use armature for the big stuff. I Learned a lot from sarafina fiber arts you tube videos. i like the way she anchors the legs. I have applied that technique to some of the other stuff I have felted. I want my felted animals to be to scale at this point i may want to do some caricatures of animals in the future but for now I would like to keep them accurate. So i have been measuring pictures in books or on my kindle in cm then translating them into inches this is the measurements I am going to use for the giraffe .
Even though koi whch is all polyfil except the black spots does not have an armature I still measured a koi picture the the picture was 5 inches but the final koi is 10 inches I marked where each fin started and ended to get it to look real. ![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhuLN5D7R2yysLZYg6rI8WGQUZiGxLn7M8nyurM6s_3AG1Vs5btOzDi_R8PcUNcKOoWmEUpUjwrFYWuUZCky41tTvuY2SSDCt2-K00g-w9GLQyzJK2bZq_B1rCkQNmr9gaCtZS2GAvcyFQ/s1600/IMAG0421.jpg)
