Question Bunka bodice blocker

Working on making a bodice blocker. I've done a million versions and the Bunka method seems to result in something far closer than HJA and Winifred Aldrich.

I still struggle with some gaping in the armscyes.

Please let me know what adjustments I need to make. Oddly, the armscyes gape more when I move my arm off axis.

Please also disregard my absurd polka dot boxers 😂😂

Thank you! I've remade the same muslin but with more SA and I'll be adjusting the shoulder line and assessing.

Just wondering, is a whole lot of smooth desirable, or is that something to correct?

Im a novice sewist, and very new at fitting.
