Step 4: Tinfoil and Paper mache

I covered the doll's head with tinfoil (except for the back because I wanted my modelling clay back after the mask had dried and I would be able to slip the mask off easier this way) and started layering on the paper mache (overlapping the edges, no more than 2 layers). For my paper mache, I just use torn strips of newspaper dipped in a mixture of water and glue (1 to 2 mixture). I squeegee off the excess glue by gently running the dipped strip between my thumb and index finger.
