Balsa wood might work as well and if you paint it and put it in a  
toaster oven it should dry real fast.
Another thing that might help is a space blanket, real thin material  
$2-$3 at Walmart.

We have only one more session this coming saturday, so paint may cause
delays, but I like the foam idea, onto which I can glue some thin  
reflective
material (perhaps some polished stainless or similar.  Perhaps some
reflective tint ,aterial might work.

#2 sounds pretty good.
make some test shapes out of dense foam ( machine it or carve it )
( $2 at Walmart ) and coat it with aluminium paint.  I used the green
foam that does not dissolve when painted.  Put on several coats of
paints to get the surface smooth.
