Acthung!!! Me 262!

If you still want to try I can give you some advice: the problems are the proper form of nose because the piece is formed with petals and the landing gear needs to strengthened.
And you have to paint the air intakes to get a more nice look.

This was my first paper model and I was so anxious I just printed it in common paper and build it. I never added the landing gear because the paper is too thin.
BTW the model suggested by Zathros is very nice but of course it's a totally different level of complexity. I've it and be ready to make a lots of formers, of course it's a great model just you need more work.

Here the model which still stands after several years:

it just looks too cool!!!

[spaceagent-9]

yes
romulans like punk rock!
asia,tsol,abrahsive wheels,ramones,sex pistols and of course iron maiden,
although thats early metal.
i was thinking of more of the naboo quad engine, and then making it just a out in space ship,
but this model is so cool it could be almost anything. a borged out version would be cool too.

I built the FG Me 262 in 1/72 scale a few years ago.
We used it in a wargame which had two Me 262's hidden in a woods along an autobahn.
The other plane was plastic and the plastic modelers were amaized at how close the card model was to the plastic plane.

it pretty cool!!
a black one with red lines would be completely uber luftwaffer[?????}
by the way i looked on my adobe reader file on this and it had the ''d'' in the name.
it must be infuriating to see that all the time!

While not a Me 262 but a beauty is probably due of their
