A while back I built a 1/1700 USS Stargazer model. It was my first Star Trek paper model. I don't recall a ton about the build process. I do recall that the varoius internal support beams wanted to warp on me. I think I have become better at that type of element construction over the months... but warped square beams make scifi models look... broken/bad. I love the stargazer, but I'm not super happy with what I constructed.

I took a break from scifi and space paper models to build the Jaguar XKR that is offered over at the Canon website. Sorry, no pics of this one yet either. There are a bunch of fancy curves in the parts of this model and some of them can become pretty tricky. But it does come out very close to how it is pictured on the Canon site and is fun to build. ... now all we need is a full line of paper models representing the lab board cars from Top Gear!

One of my early builds this year was a Little Joe II in 1/48 by Ton. I don't have any pictures of this, but it went together very easily and makes a stunning rocket model. I have it sitting on my desk at work and people are always commenting about it. IIRC, the instructions were clear and things went together with little fuss. My most notable issue was getting the escape rocket to sit level on the truss that connects it to the capsule. But I will mark that up to being a beginner at the time. I think this was my 2nd or 3rd paper model.
