Ok, to make a long story short, my hands are shit but I want to try to carve things.
the conclusion i have reached is use foam.
foam itself is relatively expensive, and large so i don't want to buy pre made pieces.
is there any diy foam i could make, that would have little to no air pockets, (think the fiam normally has .01mm air holes or less, but than there is one area that looks like it could be mistaken for swiss cheese) that i could make in fairly small quantities or containers, empty soda cans?

I dont think you are going to be able to make your own foam any better.
What kind of carving are you talking about

sharp knife, but sense its just foam, i could probably be able to use an exacto knife more precisely.
quality wise... i'm not expecting it to be perfect, just wondering if there was an option that would piss me off.

for an ultra ghetto version you could use spray can expanding foam, spray it into a frame of the shape you want and then carve it?
Not sure how toxic it would be to handle over a large period of time but it might work?

No way to spray expanding foam without getting random huge ass air pockets.
