Anonymous #62556 has a better grasp on how to get thicker paperboard to work. If you want, you can use thick paperboard. I was thinking of something thinner that probably wouldn't have those issues, but I really don't know how big this thing would be after enlarging it by %300 and how well the model would hold up to the enlargement based on its parts. Usually I would use rolling on something like this instead of hard folds, but this one is more angular, so that's not really an option.
If you're going to use paperboard that's thick enough that you want to score it, then try scoring it on the opposite side that the template is glued onto. That way, the template won't have to stretch out as far, because the board will be squeezed together more.

This is more along the lines of what I thought you might want to buy when I first suggested it. It's been awhile since I've had a chance to work with it, so I don't remember exact properties of the stuff too clearly.
