It is made of 3/16" black Elmers Foam Board.
The tools I used are:
Everything u/jayfehr said is correct. Michael's, Joann Fabrics, and Hobby Lobby are all good sources. Foamcore usually comes in 1/8" and 3/16" thicknesses, and I prefer 3/16" because the thicker edges are easier to glue. Any glue will do the job, but quick dry tacky glue is my personal favorite glue for foamcore building. For rulers, I suggest steel instead of aluminum, or at least something with a steel cutting edge. Xacto blades can chew up an aluminum ruler and dull their own edges in the process. If you're intent on doing this a lot, I also recommend a small T-square because it's important to make nice, clean right angles and a cutting mat to preserve your table and your blades.

You don't need the quick dry and some people suggest not using the quick dry because without it it gives you more time to fix mistakes or reposition pieces. That's probably true and I have made a few mistakes that I'm sure would look better and been easier to fix if I wasn't using the quick dry but I do like the speed.
