The compound curve aspect does come from forming one-dimensional curves over a total of 5 sections. This method was the only way of forming curves that did not involve cutting the 1/4 inch sheets in the fashion that Varn described (that's a nice boattail shape).

Once I get the skin coated (I have two cans of Styropoxy coming), I can use Bondo to fashion true compound curves, then coat the resultant mess with fiberglass.
