Chicken Wire Sculpture

Hi Everyone,
I switched gears for my final sculpture project, and again, I'm throwing myself to you. I know I want to make a chicken wire sculpture for the shape, but I want to put a latex or rubber-like smooth finish over it. I also want it bright pink.
My only thoughts were that I could paper mache the chicken wire, and goop latex over it... good idea? I also know you can't really paint latex. So any ideas? Am I going about this the right way?

You are wonderful. Thanks for the tips in both my threads!
edit: Test your painting technique. Getting a really smooth surface will be more difficult, but not omgimpossible.
