Dressform

I am making myself a customized dressform. I got a kit from My Twin and roped a friend into wrapping me with plaster bandages. I have sent for the foam to fill it, which I hope will arrive this week. In the meantime, here are some photos of the empty cast.

It's a somewhat scary view of my body, but it's the only one I have, so I'll run with it.

I actually did this several years ago. However, I kept looking down to make sure the person who was wrapping me was doing it right, so the shoulders came out even more rounded than mine really are (at least, that is what I think). Also, I weighed 20 pounds or more less then, so I wanted to try again. Here is a photo of that one.

Just because I weighed less doesn't mean that I wasn't short waisted and flat chested with huge bumps on my thighs though. :-)

Also, I got a cool new camera, so I can take these pics.
