So, as many of you may already know, things start from a wire armature. In this case, it is very important to me that the character could be recognized not just by his face, but the whole body also. Posture is an essential component of the miniature expression, so after some research, I found this stance to be quite representative of the dance teacher:



I proceeded by adding some basic volumes with a mix of apoxie and green stuff, and correcting the posture as I was modelling.



The illustration I found to use as a posture reference is a back view, so I have to study and figure out what would the clothing folds look like from the front view. Fortunately, I do have a useful pair of baggy pants for my reference notes.
