paper model
Cardstock construction project
A paper model is a three-dimensional object constructed from paper or cardstock, typically by cutting out printed shapes and folding or gluing them together.
Paper models range from simple children's crafts to elaborate architectural replicas, vehicles, and figures: He spent weeks building a paper model of Notre-Dame Cathedral.
The hobby overlaps with origami but usually involves cutting and adhesives rather than pure folding.
