I found this at a thrift store a while ago and thought it'd be something people might be interested in having some nice, high-res photos of for reference. It's a really good tool for understanding the basic shapes of the head if you're just getting into character modeling or character design.

The zip file contains 22 high-res images from various angles.

Here are some samples:

Very handy, much better than the rubbish photobucket ones I've got.

Thanks Swizzle.

I want that thing, as a real thing made out of rock. It's not just a nice study tool, it's an artpiece.

Actually I've been looking for one for a while, but all I can find is the plastic molded one you have.

Someone needs to model this and upload it to shapeways so people can order prints. I was thinking of finding a good anatomically correct human mesh and getting it printed.

Well, there is a website that sells 13 inch plastic casts, if you're just looking to use it as reference. I believe the site is maintained by Asaro's granddaughter or something.
98 bucks for the head and a booklet, a bit pricy, but I don't think a 3D print will be cheaper. Plus this way you support the artist, or by proxy at least.

Oh forgot to say this the first time round, thanks for the pix, swiz.

Your post makes me want to go to a thrift store... Although I know the chances of finding something good are slim.
