Similar (More or Less): foam

Foam rubber is a common craft material, e.g. for masks and similar 3D projects as it is much thicker as paper.

According to wikipedia [1], the craft material and actual foam rubber are different things - but that's what it says on the label pretty much wherever you buy it, so we'll call it that for now.

Shaping

The material can be cut with shop scissors or a sharp blade. It also melts easily and can be cut with the laser cutter if you need more precision.
