I copied the canopy parts, then built them with the seams on the outside so I had a basic mold. Filled the mold with sculpey. Baked the sculpey. Filled and sanded the sculpey to make it smooth. Used the sculpey form in my Mattel Vac-u-form machine.

If you're in the states, PM me your address and I'll send you the sculpey form, assuming I can locate it easily.
