If you look closely at any good model builder's work, you will not be able to guess the material from which it was made. This is a combination of well-fitting parts, precise cuts, and good finishing techniques. This said, I will say flat out that I am partial to cardboard as a building material. It is abundant, free, and as close as your nearest dumpster. Much of what theatrical model builders use is illustration board, which is like really thick cardstock. Sometimes you can get away with substituting corrugated board. There are many different kinds of cardboard, with variations in number of ply, durability, amount of glue, style of courrugation. Familiarize yourself with these to find the right kinds to fit your needs. Also, the magic of paper mache never ceases to do the trick. Recipe for the glue: mix cornstarch with cold water, pour into boiling water (one box will make about a large soup pot). Soak cardboard in water to separate the plys. Then rip up the material and saturate it in the glue. Voila.
