Material is High density thermocole- used for packing fish. Wire cut ...and reinforced. Covered with paper and painted.
As for the plan, I took it from P51D and spitfire plan, and then modified it for easy construction.

I have flown the fighter only once....5 times take off and only one landing.....mainly pilot error.. But plane still in 1 piece, no damage whatsoever. Will try later... The other 2, flies really well.
