agrinsh1,
You can find them in the blueprints. There is also a long list of projects on anvilfire.com
I have used some of the instruction from Bill Epps. When I followed the instruction step by step, I was very pleased with the final product.
Good Luck,
Jerry

My main art is wood. I have read where one makes a "mock-up" in a easier material such as clay. How you intend to make the heads does make a difference in how you make your mock-up.

If you make it with sheets of metal bent, formed, shaped for just the outside, one might use plastic sheets and heat them to get them to the shape. Or one could use some of the poly clay that can be baked to hold their shape.
Solid heads could be made with a block of clay or shaped out of wood.
It is good to have a nice model of a head, possibly an artist's positionable horse models or simply a toy.
A lot depends on how well you can see and work in three dimensions.

Good luck.
