fancythat, I tried just gumpaste to begin with but it was just too long and would break under its weight. To keep it light enough I ended up getting some balsar wood from a hobby store and scultping it up using a knife. It was nice and light and just had a thin layer of gumpaste over it, just glued on with vodka. Obviously there was a centre dowel through the cake for the rotor to connect to. :)
