Wire Figure

My first attempt at both making a human figure, and also working with wire. It was all trial and error, and guessed the whole time. I kept changing my mind and coming up with new ideas of how to make the body's shapes, which is why the style slightly changes throughout, but it adds variation, so, I win!
It's roughly 8"x 12". I wrapped wire to make it thicker to make an inner bone structure, and wrapped all the joints so they stood out. I tried to make all the knots that hold the wire the same. I specifically placed so that they would provide movement as well. I got incredably frustrated working on this, I can't even describe how frustrated I got. But, after I created the hands and feet was able to continue working on it optomistically! The legs are my favorite part. They were the hardest, but the most fun to create because I wanted them to be very defined.
