Step 1: Set Up the Support for the Head
Set up the support for the head by fixing a plumbing pipe onto a timber base. This will hold the head steady.
Step 2: Form the Base of the Head with Newspaper
Form a paper ball for the structure of the head by crumpling paper around the upper half of the pipe, starting from the top.
Step 3: Secure the Paper with Masking Tape
Wrap masking tape around the paper just enough to keep it in place.
Step 4: Wrap the Paper in Clay
Cover the paper ball completely with clay, making a thick wall about 1 cm thick.
Step 5: Round Out the Clay
Shape the clay into a round shape using a spatula.
Step 6: Add the Chin
Attach a piece of clay to the lower part of the face to form the chin.
Step 7: Mark the Face Proportions and Make the Eye Sockets
Make a mark in the middle of the face and divide it roughly into three equal parts for guidance, then press in the eye sockets.
Step 8: Shape Features
Add a nose and define the cheekbones.
Step 9: Add More Features
With a tool make a line for the mouth and refine it, add the ears, and further define the nose and cheekbones.
Step 10: Make the Eyes
Add a round shape into the eye sockets and blend it smoothly with the rest of the face, then create the eye line.
Step 11: Finish Up
Smooth a bit and adjust the whole head until it feels complete.
