Fosshape - an interesting material being used for Mannequin fabrication

K, give a call to Marla Miles, Costume Preparator at the Cincinnati Art Museum (especially since you're so nearby). She pretty much introduced the stuff at the last mountmaking conference, so she's a great source of info and ideas.

All,
Approximately how many yards of fosshape does it take to make one torso mannequin? Thanks!

I used about 1 yard per, with about 20% waste. That's shoulder to just below hips, without a neck.
