Artists seeking to add structure to clay structures can opt for wire mesh armatures. These skeletons, made of chicken wire or other wire meshes, offer customization that can accommodate any size or contour.
Taking the place of traditional skeletons, wire mesh armatures effortlessly offer versatility and convenience to clay sculptures. Their lightweight design and adjustable nature make them an ideal solution for constructing more complex, organic figures, as they are capable of allowing greater flexibility for manipulation.
When completing a clay sculpting project with a wire mesh armature, the armature can easily be removed from the finished piece and stored to use for future sculptures. This cost-effectiveness makes them a particularly appealing choice for sculptors looking to cut down on expenses.
Working with wire mesh armatures requires attention and care. Gloves are a must when handling due to their sharpness; additionally, they should be kept dry and clean since they are prone to rusting. Despite having similar functions to regular skeletons, these armatures may not be strong enough to support heavy or grand-scale sculptures.
Unique clay sculptures can be created with ease using wire mesh armatures – a lightweight, adjustable, and highly flexible option. Additionally, they are very economical, as they can be reused several times with only minimal care.
