If you get some sculpey you can make a head to suit
I wanted the hat to sit lower and used (as you know) bobamikes cast,
the stuff he used is fairly plyable, I was able to get the head small enough so that the mask bent slightly around the head,
That way I didnt have to alter the mask
Some sculpey on a neck post and then sanded down to fit, admittedly I cant display sans mask as he has no face, but I never intended too anyway
I went another way with the head. Instead of Sculpey I got a head I had laying in the bottom my parts box, George W. Bush to be exact. One I knew that I'd never use and took my Dremel to it. Ground off the nose, chin, cheek bones, and eye browes so it would fit further into the mask. Then I ground off the hair on the back of the sculpt, taking as much head as was safe. Didn;t want the head to become to soft in the back. After testing the hat fit to make sure it would fit alright, I applied Elmers glueall to all the exposed area on the back of the head. I then applied Cotton gause over the wet glue to give it a cloth apperance to the back of the head. After it was dry , I spray painted all exposed areas flat black. The results are better than I had hoped. After I finish painting the mask I'll post pix. I have all the uniform parts ready to go, Waiting for a narrow shoulders True Type body to arrive.
