Hello Mark,
The skeleton of the gondola hull was wooden, covered with plywood (not aluminium) and back with a canvas.
I made it from many layers of paper. I formed a shape from wet paper, then stiffened with cyanoacrylate glue and finally used a putty.
I wish you good luck in building
Regards,
Dick
