I would love to see a False Face custom done, wish he had made a second appearance on the show,
probably the best one and done arch criminal from the series. I wonder if FTC will ever produce him?
Many years ago, a local hobby shop carried clear styrene. You could drape it/melt it with a heat gun. Tap Plastics may sell it as well. I wouldn't think it would be too hard to cut an approximate shape, lay it over either a cast of the head its going to be used on (or a spare head) and give it a quick melt. I know I'm probably oversimplifying it but I would approach it like that first. If it doesn't work, not much lost. I got the impression it didn't take much to make it pliable. After that you could just trim it to fit, no? I didn't try it but the guys at D&J Hobby knew their stuff back in the day.
^You make a good point. I've seen sheet styrene at my hobbyshop. and have used a heat gun at work. I'm guessing if you placed a sheet over, say, a plaster cast of a Reed Richards Mego head, you could probably get a good mask and trim it to the proper shape.
