Star Wars Papercraft: Darth Vader TIE Fighter

In Star Wars Episode IV during the battle to destroy the Death Star, Darth Vader pilots an advance prototype starfighter known as the TIE Advanced x1. Unlike most TIE fighters, this particular version was equipped with a hyperdrive. This paper model of the TIE/x1 is the work of Sergey-Haker at swmodel.ru. The template may be downloaded here.

UPDATE 12/25/15 - The original version of this model is no longer available. The link has been updated to point to an improved model by the same designer.

    3. Unfortunately, this particular model does not come with any instructions. If you are new to paper modeling I would suggest following the links on my FAQ page to learn more about general building techniques, paper, etc. I would also recommend for your first model building something that does have instructions. There is a BB-9E model with video instructions that would be good practice for a beginner. It is located here: https://tektonten.blogspot.com/2017/11/star-wars-bb-9e-paper-model.html
