Black Mirror III Hints
How can I get the arm bones done right?
1 of 13: Before you start messing with the actual arm bones (near the bottom left corner of the altar), you'll need to figure out which two of the four flattish bones at the altar's bottom right corner attach near the top of the spine.
2 of 13: Examining the flattish bones, you'll see that two of them (the middle two) are a bit bigger than the other two, and have prominent rounded ends. Those are the ones to attach to the bottom of the spine (as you can verify by checking the photo), so the other two must be the shoulder blades, which go near the top of the spine.
3 of 13: Notice that both of the shoulder blade bones have small hook-like protrusions on one end. Check the photo to see where those need to go.
4 of 13: They're apparently what the first bone on each arm attaches to, so rotate and place them accordingly.
5 of 13: From their starting positions, the lower shoulder blade bone needs to be rotated once and put on the skeleton's left (bottom) side near the top of the spine. The other shoulder blade can go on the spine's other side without any rotations.
6 of 13: NOTE: Make sure when you place the shoulder blades that they don't end up setting on top of the spine at all. There are two different possible placements for each shoulder blade that are very close to each other, and the one where the shoulder blade overlaps the spine is wrong.
7 of 13: Now for the four arm bones. Check the photo to see that the upper arm bones are the single-bone variety, and the lower ones are double-bone.
8 of 13: The two upper-arm bones are very confusingly similar, but you can figure out which one goes where if you check the photo. Take a close look at the right end of the bone that's on the skeleton's left (bottom) arm.
9 of 13: Only one of the two upper-arm bones can match that. Namely, the left one (from their starting positions) after three rotations.
10 of 13: Get that bone rotated and attached to the small hook-like protrusion on the skeleton's left (bottom) shoulder blade, then rotate the other upper arm bone twice before attaching it to the other shoulder blade.
11 of 13: As for the two lower-arm bones, the photo reveals that the one that goes on the skeleton's left (bottom) arm is the one with the slightly wider gap in it.
12 of 13: That's the lower of the two lower-arm bones (if they're in their starting positions), so rotate it twice and attach it to the skeleton's left (bottom) arm.
13 of 13: Rotate the other lower-arm bone twice and attach it to the other arm.
