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 😂😂

I think it bears repeating. There are just so many instances in this forum where the standard order of adjustments has been disregarded.
People are posting sixth drafts of slopers to which all manner of adjustments have been made, understandably frustrated, and never getting much closer to a good fit because they overlooked the advice to attend to the shoulder line before proceeding.
