It is for a school project and i cant use the kinda of models that already have the pieces. I have to make everything from scratch. But nothing too complicated.

Well, that is an interesting school project... I can think of a few ways to build from "scratch".
1) Carving from wood... fairly simple. Here is a link to how to carve: http://www.arts.ualberta.ca/~idesign/aug-sept-02/sam-chart.pdf

2) Building a sillouette model from cardboard... not as accurate, but still a model.
3) Building from plastic sheeting... very complicated.

Look into purchasing a few sheets of fan-fold-foam (also called Bluecore) from a local house siding company.

A local grocery store meat department may also sell a few large foam meat trays.
