Called “card modeling” or “papercraft”, it’s inexpensive and doesn’t take up as much room as regular plastic models. There are hundreds of free designs on the internet, and hundreds (thousands?) more you can buy for a few dollars each.

The best resource site I have found is cardfaq.org. They give much more detailed information on how to build the models than I ever could, plus they have a huge list of links to free designs.
