2. Face Mask
a. Sculpt
b. Mold/Cast - Biggest area of concern. There are several good threads with pictures of sculpts that are excellent but I have some concerns when it comes time to actually making the mask and I was unable to find any good threads on it. These are my questions:
i. Make the mask out of Latex or Silicon?
ii. How do I make the mask fit my head? Do I make it like the Bio Mold/Cast?
iii. What do you use to attach the teeth/mandibles to the mask? Cyanoacrylate?
iv. Do you just use an X-Acto knife to cut out the eyeholes? I was wondering the same thing for the Bio and how you would attach the mesh/visor.
c. Paint – Dependent on Mask material
3. Skin – Mr. I Build - http://www.thehunterslair.com/index.php?showtopic=4477

5. Gauntlets
