The real pro at doing Screamers with plaster gauze is
Bunki Kramer. Bunki does paper mache first - then
gauze. Here is an old Getty thread:

It that doesn't take you to it -- scroll down to
screamers.
Bunki has posted her tips and tricks - but I didn't
find it in the archives when I searched.
Hope this helps,
