Thanks guys! Really appreciate it.
The head is made of plastic...casting resin..It is not latex, but I am planning on trying to work with latex in the future.

The head of the mannequin is not finished yet, but I would like to show some details. I used custom and handmade eyes for this project. For the eyebrowes and eyelashes I used the hairs of a horse and Humbrol precision cement, a pair of tweezers and many hours of patience and concentrated work.

Brilliant!
