Ooohkay. here is where i end up sinking or swimming. armatures. Holy jesus i never thought that the mechanics of claymation were so intricate.

the bottom picture was found at monterymotiongraphis.com. It was both very informative over my head! At this point i think i will stay away from ball and socket armature. for reasons (1)I am too poor to buy it from http://www.armaverse.com/ (2)at this point,I am not innovative enough to make it.
I will do an armature more like top picture. found at:

...maybe a little bit more intricate than that. that armiture does really look crappy.
