Step 6Finishing up the skeletal structure
iImage Information

I made individually shaped pieces out of foam board to fill-out and define the body. I tried lots of things prior to this, but this method seemed to produce the lightest, most effective results. These pieces were all glued on with hot glue. This step required some modifying to the body cross sections to get a shape I was ultimately satisfied with.
I've included a couple of photos of some failed tries at finishing the body. For various reasons, neither idea worked very well.
