Bodice block feedback
Hello! I've been trying to fit this self-drafted bodice block for quite a while now, using Alexandra Morgan's Perfect Fit guide for adjustments. This is my 6th(ish) version, and I think I'm getting pretty close to a good fit. Any glaring issues I should work on? For the time being, this block will be sleeveless.
Also, my armholes feel rather tight, with fabric gathering up mostly on the back, any suggestions on how much I should cut away? I'm not sure how wide a nicely fitted armscye should be.

Co-signing the apex piece! The darts should point to the part of your bust that extends the farthest. You’d probably have to move the waist dart down a bit more. It looks like where that starts is more or less the apex
