I've been searching the forums for two weeks now, but have not found answers to the questions I have about making hands and a mask from scratch. I've seen plenty of tutorials on painting, but have found none that detail step by step the process of actually making them. I don't want to do the wool glove one because to me it doesn't look realistic enough. I have a very, VERY basic idea of how people scratch build masks (making a clay head and molding it and then making a cast if I'm not mistaken), but I've never sculpted anything even remotely like that in my entire life so I could use some pointers. As for the mask, I'm going to be trying to make it animatronic like in the video in one of the stickies (I'll link it here so people know which one I'm talking about), but I have no idea how I would actually include it in the mask since I've never done anything with animatronics or costuming before this.
Here's the animatronic video:

I'm not going to buy a mask or hands, because I am making my predator a custom character. I also will not settle for anything less than absolute perfection, so I need the best tips to make the sculpts completely flawless to the last detail (ie just as high quality as the ones in the movies). I know it may sound extreme, but there's absolutely no point in spending the amount of money that needs to be spent for this if I'm not going to have the highest quality costume humanly possible. Thanks in advance for any suggestions!
