80# is a good thickness to do papercrafts with, I suppose.
# (called pound) refers to the "weight" of the paper. the higher the weight, the thicker and sturdier it is.
cheap stuff you find in a copy machine is usually 20, good paper for home printing is 24. Stuff like Construction Paper and Cardstock can be anywhere between 80# and 110#.
lots of people suggest you buy 110# cardstock, but I always find it too thick to do small folds with.
If you still don't understand what I'm talking about, just ask someone at the store next time you go out to buy paper ;D
by the way, if you're new to papercrafting, I wouldn't suggest doing that model, but I can't say DON'T do it. My first real papercraft was PlusChan here.
took me all day to figure it out, though.
