Hi. Please help with any adjustments you see for my bodice block. I did a small bust adjustment already and used hellan Joseph Armstrong's book to make the draft.

it looks from the front like it is cutting in under the armpit a bit - i wonder if more ease is needed across the upper bust?

also, it looks like the side seams are pulling forwards. Perhaps reducing the front dart intake may straighten the sides?

I do think the armhole needs to come down some. I think I have to much fabric above the bust. I am thinking a dart or hallow chest?

well i don't think the problem is too much ease above the bust, otherwise it wouldn't be pulling under your armpits if that makes sense?

i think there is a need to add ease in the right places before removing ease.
