Now I think my foam armature will work. I haven't tried slapping on paper clay, but the structure is solid so far. I found that hot glue works fine to connect foam pieces. The foam does melt slightly, but enough glue remains to provide adhesion.
I've placed the original drawing in front of me. It makes it easier to make decisions about shaping the armature from here. The roll of fat I intend to add to the bottom of the chin should be doable with paper clay. I have one leftover section of foam that I plan to cut and add for the nose section. As I progress, I hope the armature will look less like a Storm Trooper and more like the guy in the drawing.
