If you're making any kind of deformed arm such as Nightmare's, I would suggest using plaster, since it's the easiest to form and paint. Cardboard isn't as malleable, and it's 2D, so I wouldn't use that unless I had to.

You should hallow out the plaster so that your arm can fit in it, and shape it so it's like Nightmare's. Paint it, too, for the right effect.

Hope that helped ^^; I'm not a very professional cosplayer, though; that's just what I do.
