Modelling on a human head

Hi,

I have a human head in STL format and am attempting to Creo some head-wear. Is there any way of converting an STL into a Creo part file that can be used to drop curves onto? I have tried using the Shrinkwrap method but the results are too inaccurate.

Or alternatively, does anyone know of a head model available for use in Creo Parametric?

Many thanks,

Sam

Hi Martin,

Thanks for your reply.

I've downloaded FreeCAD and attempted to create a solid from the mesh, however whenever i do so, the software stops responding. After attempting again on the highest tolerance available (10) I am still having trouble. I appreciate that the head is a very complex surface, but should it be taking this long?

Please see link to STL https://grabcad.com/library/head--4/files#

Thanks again,

Sam
