For a lot of models there are canopies to be bought if you like.Same goes for wheels and frames.

What I do when I'm shaping a part is to just lay it on the thickest part of my palm and press a rounded object to it with a foward/backward motion.
Then the part will curve up, and stay that way.
This can also be done against the edge of the table as Greg described, but it's more easy to get marks on the part that way.

I can take some shots to describe some techniques of the different parts of cardmodelling if there are any interest.That could be cutting,shaping,cones etc etc
