especially for a beginner, cardstock is best. it bends like paper, but is much sturdier.
use a cheap white glue like Elmer's Glue-All or Aileen's tacky glue (in the US) Apply it thinly, most /po/eple use a toothpick or cotton swab to do this.
Start simple, and print as big as you can. Bigger models are easier.
If there's small glue tabs or complex parts, use tweezers to hold them together.
Most important: be patient! Sometimes you have to wait for the glue to dry on certain parts before you can continue. And sometimes you have to hold the parts in place until the glue is dry. Just go slow, and it'll turn out a lot better than if you try to rush.
