This series of action figures allows to see the stance of the foot from number of viewing angles. Observe how the foot arrow thrusts RXWZDUG from the ankle to produce the correct foot stance (below).

No discussion of the leg would be complete without noting the stance of the feet and their relationship as support platforms to the pillars of the legs. In this front view leg, notice how the entire length of the leg thrusts LQZDUG from the high, outside hip projection to the low, inner ankle projection VHH long leg arrow). The foot stance is shown in the dotted ellipse. Note the thrust of the foot as the ankle connection reverses the bearing of the leg and thrusts the support direction of the foot RXWZDUG (see short foot arrow).
We have mentioned the enormous flexibility of the two body masses the torso, which effect extreme move ment in the mid-axial connection the waist. When the body weaves sways, or gyrates, it is important give the leg pillars an effective a convincing support. In the figure the right— a multiple action torso the front legs are underpinned with RXWWKUXVW foot stance support. (Note how the long leg arrows reverse at the ankle, then bear the foot stance in outward direction from the leg.)
