Armaverse Armatures has unveiled its new line of Phase 3 stop-motion animation armature kits and parts. Dubbed "Humature" by Armaverse, the six-inch human armature is 100% stainless-steel and allows for smaller sets, lighter characters and easier animation. A revamped head support closely follows human form and makes a convenient base for replacement animation. According to the manufacturer, the precise human proportions of the Phase 3 Humature give completed characters extremely realistic movement with correct 90-degree articulation at the knee and ankle joints. In addition, the "sandwiched-plate" design provides tension isolation, allowing animators to adjust individual joint tension on either end of a single limb throughout the entire character. The introduction of Phase 3 has been accompanied by a completely revamped Website filled with examples of characters and creations one can build with Armaverse parts, including elephants, grasshoppers, spiders, letters, humans from 3.75 inches to 13 inches and more.
