SHAPE, chill...
Greg, leave the nose and ears. You want to sculpture over them, so just bulk it out.
Cut the clay into 1/2 inch slabs (think of a sliced bread loaf) and stick them all in the microwave. Maybe 30-40 seconds. When you put the clay in there, it heats it from the inside out. It can/will turn into molten lava on the inside if you nuke it too long. You dont need to treat the bust with anything, just put the clay right on it.
