Sculpting over a Fiberglass underskull?

A few years ago I obtained a complete gorilla suit made by Howard Berger for an unmade TV show called Primate. 

The suit included two heads and underskulls but the foam latex has disintegrated. The underskulls are WONDERFUL and I’d hate for them not to be used. I decided to try and sculpt a new head over the underskull that fits me perfectly. 
I’m assuming I just wrap the skull in cellophane, sculpt, then mold as usual? Here are pictures of the underskulls:

    Thats a practical way to do it however you could also use Monster clay to just sculpt onto the existing structure..think of it as a "skull" to work from
