Questions about the mask

[dano]

You'll have to forgive me if these are age old questions that everybody is fed up of answering! I did look over the forums trying to see if anybody has answered this already but couldn't see any.

I'm intending to have a go at sculpting a Pred 1 style mask...but I've never actually sculpted before! I was wondering if there's any known dimensions for the screen used mask that I can work to? I've seen some absolutely excellent sculpts on the forums but most people seem to work to face casts so is this the general rule? My current way of thinking is that I want to make a static display piece so I don't need it to custom fit, but if information is known on the size of the original sculpt I would like to try and get as close to that as possible.

Thanks in advance if anybody can give me some pointers here!

I have the measurements at home I can post later tonight. I can tell right now the movie one is huge.

Taking a measuring tape off the Statue head.
Across the eye area from dread hole to dread hole is 13"
From the top of the head to the bottom gum of the top teeth is 16 3/4"
From the side dread hole inline on an angle with the front mandibles is 11 1/2"
From the top mandible back to the eye is 2" deep
From the bottom of the top gums to the bottom of the chin is 4"
From going around the the top of the crown and across the eyes its 38"
from the top of the side crown on an angle to the top mandible end is 14"

I never knew the actual measurements, either! Now, anyone can take these and do up a basic measurement chart for the Predator head.

YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY!!!!!

Didn't want to draw up a new head, but here is a chart. This will make a bobble head mask for a person under 7' and if you have narrow shoulders.

This is brilliant stuff thanks Mortal, I'm at work at present so can't have a proper think over the measurements but I'll have a good look over this when I get home. Once again my sincerest thanks for your help on this.
