Well,.....This a month late but thought I'd add my 2 cents. If you can carve a little, try making a half hull model and then take the lines off with a contour gage at measured stations.
Use an easiy to carve material such as pink foam from Home depot.You can glue 2 inch layers together to get the bulk you need. Use a hot wire to rough out the form,then a sanding device to refine the form. You can then harden the surface with epoxy resin such as west systems epoxy to preserve the shape. Anyway this is not paper modeling by any means but it will get the shape you need. You can then derive your cross sections and even the skin from a real model. These cross sections and skins can be scaled up or down by use of a copier toget the size you need. BILL
