Now you'll make a sheet of Duct Tape, making sure it's relativly the same size of the cast. Make one side, and then the other. To make a sheet, place one strip of duct tape sticky side up, and then place another strip of equal length halfway down, also sticky side up, halfway down the first strip of DT. When you have the size you want, start on the next side.

Coming from experience, if you've made sheets of Duct Tape, you've probably made one sticky sheet, and then another, and tried to put the two sheets of paper together. I don't recommend this. Instead, make one sheet, and while sticky side up, start placing strips sticky side down peice by peice along the sticky sheet. This will save time and frustration.

Now, flatten the tin foil 'Cranium' on the sheet, making sure to keep the same shape.

When you've got it to the desired shape, outline using a marker or pen (Trust me, use marker) the shape, and when your done, cut out the shape of your 'cranium'.
Make sure to cut just a little outside of your outline, so that the shape will be sure to stay the same. Now wipe off the outline. Glad you used marker, huh?
