Mannequin help?

Or you can do what Daz did. Scroll down the page to view how he cut off points of articulation and put in flexible fencing material. It worked like a charm for his Jango mannequin!
 
Here is were I got mine. They have great prices.

For this pose: http://www.thedentedhelmet.com/showthread.php/36189-My-Boba-is-almost-done-now!-99

I just bought a mannequin from ebay and cut the head, and the arms to re-position them. I used heavy duty tape to keep it in the pose I wanted it and fiberglassed the arms again. After 30 minutes it was dry and hard as a rock. It´s no problem to put the ee-3 blaster into the hands. The head I did cut off because the mannequin slightly looked to the side and that was lame looking. I re-positioned the head too and viola ... that´s it.

Oh and the fingers: I looked for a mannequin with seperate fingers (many of them have some fingers molded together!) and did cut them off. I used the heavy duty tape too to put them togerther again. I didn´t fiberglas them, because I wanted them to stay flexible.
I now could bend them in form as liked. In my case one hand to hold the blaster´s trigger and one to hold the barrel.

I first thought it would be hard to get this done ... but it is not.

Hope I could help a bit!

The main problem is the height of most of the ebay mannequins. The most are 1,88 m or even taller than that. If you ad a helmet you easily have a Boba with 1,90m or more.
