It will be well when all the clay is put on, to fix a plumb-line to the extremity of the nostrils of the horse and toplace a nail on the plinth just where the point of the Fig. 73. In this way it will be easy to gather if the armaturehas moved at any time during the work, that is to say, whetherit has inclined forwards or backwards, for as soon as the I02 Modelling point of the weight is no longer right over the nail, there hasbeen some movement. Too much care cannot be taken in making the armatureas strong as possible. In giving the necessary time to this,many difficulties and worries will be saved during the progressof the work. When the pointing is finished, the two chassis may beremoved and the model brought near. It is only necessaryto fill with clay the empty spaces between each of the pointsto the extremity of the pegs, and to indicate the differentforms of the model. In a very short time an exact andagreeable preparation will be obtained. There will necessarilybe modifications to be made in the treatment and in thedrawing, for the character of the work required by each scaleis different.
