If you want I can refer you to the Armature Building Tutorial I used.
It requires only 1 length of wire and no cuts so it's strong and the most simple I could find.

King of Boredom : I just had an idea!
m_) 22-24 gauge soft-thin wires. The higher the number the thinner it will be. Usually thin gauge is ideal for the creation of hands. You want small fingers, then you may end up using 24-26 gauge wire.
m_) Of course it all varies...You may even want softer thin areas in other places according to your own character preferences.
m_) As you build the chest and legs, make sure it is not too thick either. It has to be somewhere in between, or else it will break as you bend it over and over. Normally, 22 is a good size to start.

m_) DUDE! -make sure you buy different gauges.. annealed is preferable. (last longer)
and also, here are the best gauges to apply = 22 - 24 - 26
Don't buy 18 gauge...i used to believe that was good but you will waste your money if you do...at least is not what I would recommend. TOO HARD that will break.
